Blockbuster Celtic Transfer Rumour Leaves Fans Divided

Celtic have quite a few voids to fill when it comes to their roster, especially considering how much profit the club has made on departures and minimally spent on acquisitions at this point. The notion that they are checking in on many players and not finalising deals or really getting any closer seemingly is difficult to watch for most fans.

While there is plenty of time left in the window, the Scottish side desperately needs to get a few more players to remain competitive, and they have not done so yet.

One of the most notable spots that requires attention is the striker position, which currently consists of Adam Idah, Callum Osmand, and Johnny Kenny. Daizen Maeda might need to get back to playing as a winger after the departure of Nicolas Kuhn and the long-term injury to Jota.

While this is a somewhat formidable group, there is clear space to upgrade, especially considering the latter two of that group are youngsters and need to develop further before hoping to play regular football for Celtic.

The question then becomes whether or not Celtic will look to add another one, and recent interest suggests it is at the forefront of their mind. While they may not be willing to make a large-scale addition there that they have no experience with, maybe they could consider bringing back a familiar face instead?

Which Former Celtic Striker is the Club Looking to Bring Back?

According to a new report put out by Sébastien Vidal, Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is looking into the potential to bring back striker Odsonne Édouard:

"Crystal Palace have put Odsonne Édouard on the market this summer.

"Celtic are monitoring the situation closely, with Brendan Rodgers considering a return for the 27-year-old striker he once launched in Glasgow."

Édouard had a pretty strong career with Celtic for some time, and while he may not have ended the way many fans wanted, most would welcome him back.
