The Scottish Premiership star who was investigated by Celtic has apparently reached an agreement to join AEK Athens. Celtic are in need of a replacement left-back this summer. Kieran Tierney has signed a five-year contract with the Hoops after departing Arsenal after his contract expired in North London.

 

 

 

However, Greg Taylor declined to extend his contract with Celtic after six years in Glasgow, and he will now represent the Greek club PAOK. Tierney necessitates backup, specifically in light of his inconsistent injury history. It is nearly certain that the Scotland international will be unable to circumvent the treatment table this season.

 

 

 

 

67 Hail Hail exclusively disclosed that Celtic have been monitoring Josh Doig, and they have also investigated James Penrice, the left-back of Hearts. Celtic neglected an opportunity? Celtic would have been able to financially contend with AEK Athens for the signature of Penrice, as the fee is only £2m.

Perhaps Penrice was eager to relocate overseas, as he was aware that first-team football was guaranteed, a situation that was likely not to be replicated at Celtic.
