Celtic have made a flying start to the 2024/25 campaign.
They are unbeaten in the Scottish Premiership and have made a strong start in the Champions League as well.
Celtic made some fantastic signings in the summer transfer window, and the Bhoys will aim to continue their spending spree and bring in more quality players in January as well.
In recent weeks, the Bhoys have been linked with a move for Motherwell midfielder Lennon Miller, who is also being chased by Scottish rivals Rangers and Premier League leaders Liverpool.
According to a report from the Daily Mail, Celtic are expected to make a move for the highly-rated teenage midfielder in January.
He has produced some mature performances in the Scottish top flight and has become one of the hottest properties in the country.
How much Celtic need to pay for Lennon Miller
Motherwell will demand at least £4 million for the 18-year-old midfielder.
The Fir Park chairman Kyrk Macmillan insisted that the club want to keep hold of Miller for a long time, but in reality, they are expected to receive offers in the January window.
Celtics have not yet made any official approach to sign the midfielder, contrary to reports circulating on social media. If Miller leaves the club for the aforementioned price, it would eclipse David Turnbull’s £3m record move to Parkhead in 2020.
Celtic must spend in the January window
Hugh McDonald said a few days back on PLZ Soccer that Celtic have money to spend in the winter transfer window.
With every win in the Champions League, the prize amount increases, and it will help the Bhoys to lure top talents across the country.
McDonald said that Celtic will sell some of their top players, like Nicolas Kuhn, Reo Hatate or even Kyogo Furuhashi, next summer, and the money will be reinvested into the squad.
That is how their transfer model works, and the club should always prepare for finding quality replacements.
Celtic are always in the market for talented youngsters with a resale value. Miller is a special talent who plays in an advanced midfield role. He has created 22 chances in the league and has racked up three assists.
The youngster also makes 1.5 interceptions, 1.5 tackles, 1.7 clearances, and 6.5 ball recoveries, which reflects his all-round abilities.
