Brendan Rodgers issues an update regarding the status of Greg Taylor’s contract at Celtic, as his desire is reiterated.

 

Brendan Rodgers has addressed the contract situation of Greg Taylor at Celtic in an effort to guarantee the long-term destiny of another first-team prize asset.

 

The Scotland international is currently in the final year of his contract at Parkhead; however, there has been minimal advancement in this regard in recent months. Brendan Rodgers announced his intention to secure Greg Taylor’s long-term employment at Celtic prior to the most recent international break.

 

He emphasized the significance of Taylor’s influential status within the dressing room and paid tribute to his “specialist” position in the team. With 187 appearances for the Bhoys, the 27-year-old has accumulated 29 assists and eight goals, and is now a member of the senior nucleus in the building, having earned nine winners’ medals.

 

 

However, Rodgers has made it clear that he is committed to securing an extension for Taylor’s Celtic contract. In his pre-match press conference prior to the match against Hearts, the Irishman once again addressed his current circumstances.

 

Brendan Rodgers regarding the Celtic contract predicament of Greg Taylor Rodgers expressed his optimism that Celtic will be able to reach a new contract with Taylor when he spoke earlier today. However, he acknowledged that nothing is “close” at this time.

 

He declared, “I am of the opinion that there is nothing comparable; however, I must acknowledge that it is a goal of mine. I must also demonstrate respect for all parties involved.

 

” From a managerial, club, and Greg perspective, I am eager for him to remain in this position and am confident that we will make every effort to retain him.

 

However, I also acknowledge Greg’s position. “He is an exceptional trainer with an exceptional mindset, and there is no drop-off with him.”

 

“I am extremely optimistic that we will be able to sign him, even if he does not renew. I am aware that he will give his all until the very last day here.

 

“He has been cultivated in this environment; his skill set is well-suited to our approach on the field, and he is an exceptional passer of the ball.

 

His perspective on the game is exceptional; he excels in the inverted role for us. He is a truly integral member of the team, both on and off the field, and we are eager to maintain this.

 

“We are not interested in relocating players of that caliber; we would prefer to retain them if they wish to remain.

 

We are optimistic that we will be able to accomplish this in the future.” Greg Taylor’s decision time at Celtic is rapidly approaching.

 

The Celtic left-back Taylor will be free to speak with clubs in January about signing a pre-contract elsewhere as the New Year approaches. Consequently, it is imperative that his future be resolved promptly for the benefit of all parties.

 

 

Initially, it may be advantageous for him to maintain his options, as his subsequent contract will likely be his final payment during his prime years as a footballer.

Rodgers, the Celtic manager, has repeatedly expressed his intention to retain the Scotland international.

 

 

Nevertheless, Taylor has been residing in Glasgow for an extended period of time, and it is uncertain whether he is willing to commit to a long-term future.

 

It is our hope that he will be able to make the appropriate decision by signing the dotted line. The Bhoys have found his quality and experience to be invaluable; however, the time for a decision is rapidly approaching.
