Brendan Rodgers Confirms Massive Injury Problems Ahead of Ross County Match

Brendan Rodgers has revealed that Celtic faces significant concerns over their wide players ahead of Saturday’s lunchtime clash against Ross County in Dingwall.
Nicolas Kuhn, who missed Wednesday’s game due to an injury sustained during the warm-up, remains doubtful, while Daizen Maeda is racing against time to regain fitness.
Adding to the challenges, Luis Palma will be unavailable following the heartbreaking news of his grandfather’s passing, as confirmed by Rodgers during a live interview on Sky Sports.
This situation leaves Celtic with just one fully fit senior winger, South Korean Hyun-jun Yang, as James Forrest is already sidelined until February.
The shortage of options has forced Rodgers to consider alternative solutions for his lineup.
One possibility is utilizing McCowan as a makeshift winger. Having played in wide positions during his time at Ayr United and demonstrated versatility in a recent cameo on the flank against Dundee United, McCowan could help maintain the team’s current setup.
Alternatively, Rodgers might adopt a two-striker system with Adam Idah and Kyogo Furuhashi both available. This would reduce reliance on wingers while allowing Celtic to attack Ross County’s defense more directly.
Kyogo’s adaptability could also see him deployed on the wing, leveraging his pace and creativity, while Idah takes on the role of central striker.
Rodgers must carefully manage the squad with crucial Champions League matches and a packed domestic schedule ahead. While Saturday’s match is an opportunity to strengthen their lead at the top of the table, the absence of key attacking players adds an extra layer of difficulty to the task.
Local Media Confirm Alexandro Bernabei Fee as Deal Completed
Celtic have completed the permanent transfer of Alexandro Bernabei to Brazilian club SC Internacional for €5.5 million, with an additional €500,000 in potential bonuses.
The Argentine left-back, who has been on loan at Internacional since early last year, has signed a contract with the club until December 2027.
The transfer was finalized during a meeting between the two clubs at Celtic Park last week.
Bernabei has thrived during his time in Brazil, earning widespread acclaim for his performances in Serie A. The 23-year-old has been recognized as one of the league’s top left-backs, solidifying his role in Internacional’s plans and prompting the club to exercise their option to make the move permanent.
Brazilian media outlets have lauded Bernabei’s impact on the field.
Bernabei joined Celtic in 2022 from Lanús for a reported £3.75 million, becoming the first Argentine to represent the Hoops.
While he showed glimpses of potential, he struggled to secure a regular starting spot, with Greg Taylor firmly holding the left-back position.
When Brendan Rodgers returned as manager, Bernabei’s opportunities dwindled further. The consistent form of Greg Taylor and the potential return of Kieran Tierney made it clear that Bernabei was no longer a priority.
The transfer represents a solid piece of business for Celtic, yielding a profit while allowing the club to reshape its squad under Rodgers.
This move also frees up space within the squad and provides additional funds for reinvestment, which could be used to strengthen other areas as Celtic targets continued domestic dominance and European progress.
An official announcement from both clubs is expected soon, marking the end of Bernabei’s two-year stint in Glasgow as he begins a new chapter in Porto Alegre.

Breakout Bournemouth star teases interest in Liverpool transfer

Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez has hinted at interest in a potential move to Liverpool but maintains that his main focus remains on finishing an outstanding season with the Cherries.
Alongside Dean Huijsen and several others, Kerkez has emerged as one of the breakout stars of the campaign, with Bournemouth still in contention for an unlikely Champions League spot.
At just 21, he has already attracted interest from several Premier League clubs, including Manchester United.
Liverpool have also been linked, as they begin to plan for life beyond Andrew Robertson, who is entering the latter stages of his decorated career.
A move to Anfield would see Kerkez reunite with his international teammate and close friend Dominik Szoboszlai—an exciting prospect not just for him, but for Hungarian football, with two of its brightest talents playing for one of the world’s biggest clubs.
“I’m just focused on playing and winning as many games as possible with my team. A lot can happen in football, but it’s pointless to predict,” Kerkez told Hungarian outlet Nemzeti Sport when the subject of Liverpool was brought up, not wanting to get ahead of himself.
There was, however, a tease of openness to the possibility in his response.
“It wouldn’t look bad, that’s for sure,” Kerkez added. “But it’s too early to talk about something like that. I have big goals with Bournemouth, we still have a lot of games to win, that’s the most important thing right now.”
Lifting the lid on his relationship with Szoboszlai, the youngster said: “We get along really well off the field, I try to pay attention to him because he needs attention, poor thing. I told him that you can slip up on anyone, but not me, because we both need the national team.”

Tottenham and Borussia Dortmund in Transfer Battle as Spurs Target Dibling and Gittens

Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou is targeting Southampton’s Tyler Dibling and Borussia Dortmund’s Jamie Gittens as part of his strategy to bring homegrown talent to Hotspur Way this summer, GIVEMESPORT sources have revealed.
Spurs were highly active in the winter transfer window, securing Mathys Tel on an initial loan from Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich, with an option for a permanent £45 million move.
His arrival followed the signings of Antonin Kinsky and Kevin Danso, the latter joining from Ligue 1 side Lens with a £20.9 million obligation to buy. Postecoglou is working closely with technical director Johan Lange to plan future transfers.
Spurs Set Sights on Dibling and Gittens Deals
Tottenham have earmarked Tyler Dibling and Jamie Gittens as key transfer targets as they refine their strategy to strengthen their homegrown quota for next season, GIVEMESPORT sources report. However, securing both deals may prove challenging when negotiations begin.
Spurs could benefit if Southampton face relegation to the Championship in their pursuit of Dibling. However, the south coast club rejected bids below £55 million during the winter window, determined to retain the 19-year-old winger.
Sources indicate Tottenham nearly reached an agreement for Dibling in January but backed away due to Southampton’s high demands and doubts over the player’s willingness to move mid-season. Gittens is also expected to command a hefty transfer fee.
England U21 international Jamie Gittens carries an £80 million price tag ahead of the summer, having become a key figure in Borussia Dortmund’s plans during a challenging season. Securing his signature would require Tottenham to break their club-record transfer fee.
GIVEMESPORT sources reveal that Spurs ruled out signing Gittens during the winter transfer window, deeming a deal unfeasible at the time. However, their pursuit could face further complications as Premier League rivals Chelsea and Arsenal are also in the race for the highly-rated winger.
Postecoglou Remains Interested in Guehi Move
Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi remains a key target for Tottenham, despite the club’s frustration in their attempts to secure a deal mid-season. However, Chelsea are currently leading the race for his signature, with additional interest emerging from abroad.
GIVEMESPORT sources reveal that Spurs made a £70 million bid for the 24-year-old in the final days of the winter transfer window, but Palace stood firm. Ange Postecoglou now faces a decision on whether to revisit negotiations in the summer.
The high valuations of Dibling, Gittens, and Guehi present challenges for Tottenham as they look to bolster their homegrown quota. Spurs have been monitoring the situation since last summer and are under pressure to balance their squad.
Additionally, GMS sources recently disclosed that Tottenham explored signing Angel Gomes last month or securing him on a pre-contract agreement before he becomes a free agent from Lille in the summer, as they continue their pursuit of homegrown talent.
