Celtic player with uncertain future a Watford transfer target as ex-Man Utd man talks up Rangers star

We also have the Old Firm in just over two weeks, adding more intrigue to the title race ahead of the spit. In the meantime, we have rounded up all the latest news surrounding Glasgow’s biggest clubs.
Sutton verdict
Chris Sutton has issued his verdict on Celtic, and he is hopeful about what is to comer. “Keep Kyogo on form, keep Cameron Carter-Vickers fit and add that midfield trio [of Hatate, McGregor and O’Riley] and Rodgers could go into the final two months with as powerful a selection hand as he’s held all term,” he told the Daily Record.
Potentially, if Celtic can get through the Scottish Cup semi-final against Aberdeen, there are 10 games left in their season. Every single one of them promises to be massive and it is going to take big game players. Having them all his disposal through until the end of May would be perfect timing for him. The equation is pretty simple for Celtic. Win all 10 of those remaining games starting at Livingston next weekend and the Premiership and Scottish Cup double is theirs
“It’s a big period and it calls for stars who can make it happen. Hatate and McGregor are two who can shine more than any in the country.”
Meanwhile, the outlet claim AC Milan watched Celtic starlet Rocco Vata score a hat-trick on Ireland U21s duty. There are a clutch of Italian sides after him and Watford also retain an interest. He can snapped up for around £400,000 in training compensation with his Hoops dealing expiring this summer.
