CELTIC star Liel Abada has broken his silence on the transfer speculation surrounding him, insisting he is “really happy“ at the Bhoys and is in no rush to leave, despite interest from the Premier League and Ajax.
The winger also came across as extremely frustrated about what’s been written about him in the press, with many stories surfacing about the player’s future.
The 20–year–old winger, who has made 96 appearances for Celtic since arriving in 2021, has netted an impressive 27 goals and set up a further 18 from wide positions during his time at the club.
Despite struggling for game time this season, slipping down the pecking order and sitting on the sidelines with injury for a period, Abada remains ambitious and is focused on winning more silverware with the Bhoys.

“I don’t care about what the newspapers and media say,” Abada said.
“I just care about how to improve and get better for the team.
“What I’m focused on now is to get the three trophies. I’m really happy at Celtic, it feels like home here – everyone helps me. My relationships with the players and staff are really good.
“Right now, we just focus on finishing the season strong. We want to do our job, it doesn’t matter against who, we want three points and trophies.
“Sometimes you have ups and downs, so I just focus on giving 100% in training and every game.
“You play for a club like Celtic, there’s a lot of quality players, and competition, but I just focus on myself. I just want to help the team get our target, and that’s it.
“The coaches have helped me to improve, and hopefully I get better for the team.”
It’ll be interesting to see what happens in the summer, but that isn’t talk of a player who’s actively pushing for a move away from the Scottish Champions.
