Already this week we have seen the departure of Oliver Morgan who is following Rodgers to Leicester after three years at the club. Now the second staff member to leave this week is Greig Robertson who will take up a new challenge in America.

Having been at the club for 18 years, the academy coach who worked with many Celtic stars and guided them to first-team level, his new challenge will include helping young American talents reach their ambition to play at a high level.
With two staffing exits from the academy this week it does seem like a shake-up is underway. Replacements will have to be brought in to replace the vacant spaces. With many fans concerned about our youth setup, feeling we do not reap as many benefits as we could, this could start to see change.
Ange has yet to bring in his own staff, but he has brought in someone to head sports science, could the change be driven from him, after all he is a believer in young academy players.
