Celtic have an opportunity to sign both Paulo Bernardo and Adam Idah in the summer transfer window.
The Daily Record (6 February, page 60) reports that the Bhoys have been informed that they have the option to sign midfielder Bernardo for about £6 million at the end of the current campaign.
The 22-year-old midfielder came to the Hoops from Benfica over the summer on loan. After Reo Hatate’s injury, he had some time to adjust to Parkhead before emerging as a “key player” for Brendan Rodgers.
According to The Daily Record, Bernardo is content in Glasgow and desires to relocate there permanently. At the completion of the current campaign, Adam Idah might possibly sign a permanent contract with Celtic.
Idah left Norwich City in January to join on loan. The players will ultimately decide what happens to them, although the Bhoys may now sign them if they so want.
In December, during the Old Firm game, Bernardo scored for Celtic. Idah just made his Pittodrie debut as a substitute in the 1-1 draw against Aberdeen.
The forward had a significant effect on the match, and Rodgers will evaluate him carefully in the upcoming months before determining whether to sign him long-term.
When Rodgers stated that the Hoops might have performed better during the January transfer window, he didn’t disguise his annoyance. He believed there were chances to improve the squad’s depth and caliber, but Celtic’s transfer window was quite quiet.
Although they are still the favorites to win the Scottish Premiership, it is no longer a given. Rangers have closed the deficit, therefore we have an exciting title fight on our hands.
It seems like the Gers are playing with a ton of confidence whereas Celtic are having difficulty right now. This season has a lot of football still to play, and it’s too soon to judge who will win the championship.
