With the news that Erik Sviatchenko has been told he can leave the club this January another report has been circulating today that Jozo Simunovic could also be on his way too!

The towering centre-back has been left on the bench by Brendan Rodgers recently after seemingly falling out of favour with the Bosnian.

However, if reports are to be believed, Burnley are in the hunt for the Kenny Miller’s conqueror to the sound of £6.5million.

Celtic were lacking defensive depth before this window, yes, they have brought Marvin Compper in but to potentially sell two defenders in this window seems ludicrous.

Unless the Celtic scouting team has someone in mind to come in and head straight into the starting XI it just wouldn’t make any sense to ship Jozo and Erik out.

The news that Steven Caulker has been released by QPR has reignited old rumours that Celtic will look to bring the troubled defender to Celtic Park, especially after Brendan Rodgers’ glowing praise of his former player earlier this year.

If Celtic are seriously considering letting both go then you would have to imagine there is a plan in place.

With Marvin Compper ineligible for the Europa League, Celtic would be very short for their doubleheader against Zenit.

  1. Nice one, Miller has never been the same since that tackle, put the fear right up him, his bottle dropped and smashed never to return, finished him so it did and just what he needed.
