Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has made it clear that significant changes are on the horizon as the club prepares for a vital summer transfer window. Following a season of mixed results and mounting pressure from fans, Rodgers has acknowledged that the current squad needs a refresh to stay competitive domestically and in Europe.
“We need to bring in quality and fresh energy,” Rodgers said after the final league match. “This summer will be key to reshaping the squad and pushing forward.”
Several first-team players are expected to depart, either due to expiring contracts or a lack of impact throughout the season. In their place, Rodgers is aiming to recruit players who can make an immediate difference—particularly in midfield and attack, where creativity and consistency have been lacking.
Celtic’s board has reportedly promised backing for Rodgers, with a transfer budget that could allow for multiple signings. The emphasis, however, won’t just be on spending—it’ll be on smart recruitment and adding experience, especially with Champions League qualifiers on the horizon.
Rodgers, now in his second stint at the club, is keen to restore Celtic’s identity and dominance after seeing rivals Rangers mount a serious challenge this season. With fan expectations high and the pressure mounting, the upcoming transfer window could define the next chapter of his managerial reign.
