JUST IN: Tottenham Hotspur assists Celtic in the summer transfer race

In an effort to bolster the squad for the Champions League season, Brendan Rodgers of

Celtic is rumored to be shopping for new players this summer.

Since Joe Hart left the team, we all know that the goalie position is now more important than ever,

but Celtic supporters understand that other positions also need to be strengthened if the

team is to advance in Europe’s top tournament.
In addition to Cameron Carter-Vickers, Brendan Rodgers, the Celtics manager,

requires a formidable partner who can compete with Greg Taylor at left back.

Given the actions of Tottenham Hotspur this morning, the solution to the Celtic

manager’s issues might be staring him in the face.

Tottenham release Ryan Sessegnon and Japhet Tanganga

Ange Postecoglou has recently released former England u21 defenders

North London club this morning. [Fc Tottenham]

Sessegnon plays left back, while Tanganga is a central defender. What makes this relevant to Celtics fans, then?

Celtic had already expressed interest in both players during the previous few seasons.

Neil Lennon of Celtic reportedly sought Tanganga during the disastrous COVID season in 2021.

Tanganga was rumored to have considered a loan move to Parkhead as he struggled to establish himself in Jose Mourinho’s squad.

Tanganga is a versatile defender who can play in the back four at any position,

however he is most often used as a central defender.

In 2020, Sessegnon was again a concern for Celtic. Following his £25 million transfer from Fulham [BBC], he was unable to play because of the minor issue of facing off against Spurs legend Gareth Bale.

Throughout his career, he has also been used on the right side of defense, in midfield, and as a winger.Tanganga is a versatile defender who can play in the back four at any position, however he is most often used as a central defender.

Now that both players are free agents, will Brendan Rodgers be interested in them? Given that both players have been linked to moves in the past, you would have to believe that the Celtic manager would give it a look.

It remains to be seen if Celtic will be inclined to give both players another look given that they both meet the age and financial requirements of the team, particularly now that they are unrestricted free agents.
