TIF Thoughts on Celtic’s future…

Celtic are undergoing a major overhaul during the summer as not only could Howe and the new director of football come in, but veteran skipper Scott Brown is also leaving for Aberdeen and Peter Lawwell is also retiring.

The Hoops begin their Champions League campaign from the second qualifying round onwards, which means their season starts at the end of July.

So Howe could have less than two months to work on the team before heading into European competition and because of that, putting together the whole restructure as soon as possible should be key for the club.
