Thus, it’s evident that Celtic are already being associated with players that are traveling to Germany this week, even before the major competition officially begins.
And as news of an international striker that Celtic is reportedly interested in surfaced last night, it appears that those connections will continue.
When Tommy Conway will be acquired by Celtic
Tommy Conway is poised to depart Bristol City after turning down a new contract at the Ashton Gate club, as we discussed yesterday.
And now, the Daily Record claims that Celtic will act in January—but only if he chooses to extend his contract.
Conway’s contract expires at the conclusion of the following season, and because of cross-border transfer regulations, Brendan Rodgers may be able to sign him for as little as £300,000 in compensation. Conway has been called “very good” by current manager Liam Manning.
Back in April, Conway was predicted to sign with Celtic when Steve Evans, the manager of Rotherham, suggested that the “gifted” striker from Bristol City would be interested in joining the team.
And now, Conway is in the spotlight after his season of twelve goals and Lyndon Dykes’ injury forced him into a late entry into Steve Clarke’s Euro 2024 team.
And that’s where Celtic has an issue. Should the 21-year-old impress in the tournament and the club decide to wait until January to make a transfer, there will be plenty of suitors ready to snatch him away from the Championship club and ruin Celtic’s prospects of landing a great deal.
