Liel Abada insists he is in "no rush" to leave Celtic this summer after being linked with a move away from Parkhead. The Israeli striker, who is contracted to 2026, is believed to be wanted by clubs in Europe including by Dutch giants Ajax.

Abada said he is "really happy" in the east end of Glasgow and is going to fight for his position in the starting line-up. The 21-year-old has failed to pin down a regular starting berth under this season under Ange Postecoglou due to the form of Jota, Daizen Maeda and Kyogo Furuhashi.

Abada has netted 12 goals for Celtic this season and has also suffered injuries. Abada, who has been nominated for the PFA Scotland young player of the year award for the second successive season, said: "I am focused on getting the three trophies and this is the most important thing now.

I am really happy at Celtic. Everyone looks after me and tries to help me get better. My relationships with the players and staff are very good.
