Contract Disagreement: Celtic and two key stars disagree on contract renewal ,demand improve terms

The defender is under contract until May 2025, while the young forward will become a free agent in the summer,

with Celtic earning a compensation amount based on Vata’s time at the club’s academy.

On January 7, The Sun reported Brendan Rodgers saying:

I believe the club is in talks with Liam’s agency, and he is overjoyed because he is playing.

I’m sure that will be resolved in due course. It’s been a fantastic story for him.

Two months later, it appears that little significant progress has been made, as transfer specialist Scott Burns reported in the Daily Record.

Celtic are still in talks with Liam Scales and Rocco Vata about new deals.

Both parties have made offers, but no agreement has been reached at this time.

Scales joined the Celtic defence at the end of August and has not missed a game since, despite the team’s upheaval in that area.

That run of appearances has propelled him into the Irish international team and will undoubtedly have alerted other clubs to his potential.

The defender, who was signed from Shamrock Rovers just after his 23rd birthday in 2021,

is expected to be one of the lowest-paid members of the first team squad.

Vata has been linked with a number of clubs this season, notably those in Italy,

but has recently become more involved with Celtic’s first team squad, although just making three brief appearances.
