With the international break in full swing, Celtic may not be playing, but over the next several days, you can see a number of Bhoys play for their nations.
Liam Scales scored the equaliser for the Republic of Ireland against Finland yesterday, and Daizen Maeda made a brief appearance in Japan’s 2-0 triumph over Saudi Arabia.
The two guys in question, out of the 12 Celtic players serving for their countries, have given the Bhoys delegation a strong start. Even if club football is currently on hold, there are still many reasons to be optimistic, as Adam Idah also entered the game to aid the Boys in Green go over the finish line.
During the weekend, Scotland and Denmark will be playing, which might mean Celtic players Anthony Ralston and Kasper Schmeichel. Auston Trusty might also play for the US against Mexico or Panama, on the other hand.
Perhaps you overlooked one of the Bhoys Academy prospects who was making a name for himself on the scoresheet among the seniors who were excelling at the international level.
Mitchel Frame, a Celtic prospect, scores for the Scotland Under-19 team.
Although Mitchel Frame is still a promising prospect, he hasn’t been seen at the senior level since making his debut against Feyenoord during the previous campaign.
However, according to Scotland platform The Young Team on X, the 18-year-old has now scored his first goal for Scotland at the Under-19 level. He did this by grabbing a pass from Kyle Ure and finishing to assist the Tartan Army win a late game against Hungary.
Sunday’s matchup between Scotland and Hungary Under-19 is the second leg of a friendly doubleheader.
Colby Donovan and Josh Dede, who were brought up to feature, were also involved. Daniel Cummings, meanwhile, came on late off the bench.
Celtic’s Mitchel Frame’s prospects in the first team
Trevor Sinclair praised Frame after his brief appearance against Feyenoord last year, saying that he handled the moment “superbly.” But his debut was short-lived, since he is currently back with Celtic B, newly managed by Stephen McManus.
The young player from Drongan, who has made 13 appearances in all competitions this season, scored once against Tranent in a 6-0 triumph. However, Greg Taylor and Alex Valle could pose a challenge for him in terms of first-team opportunities.
For the time being, showcasing his abilities within the B Team will have to do. The opportunity to obtain some senior experience on loan in January would be beneficial to him as well.
Young talents can benefit greatly from pitting themselves against senior experts of a respectable calibre; that might be his next move.
