Rodgers eyes one signing to 'complete' Celtic as Hoops force Gary Lineker into unlikely statement - Parkhead news bulletin

Brendan Rodgers just needs one signing to 'complete' his Celtic team - and while it would be expensive, he may get it in January.

That's the view of pundit and former Celtic hero Pat Bonner who believes a new physical No.6 to ease the burden on Callum McGregor could be the final piece in Brendan Rodgers' jigsaw. On the face of it, attacking signings appear the most likely for the Hoops next month, with Rodgers admitting he wants a third striker while reports suggest a new left-winger, perhaps to replace Luis Palma, could be on the agenda.

But Bonner thinks if Rodgers is going to improve the squad, he should look deeper within his system to do it. They're hardly short on options there with immutable skipper McGregor joined by Reo Hatate, Arne Engels, Luke McCowan and Paulo Bernardo. But Bonner believes another physical presence would unlock a change of shape - and in doing so, 'complete' the squad.

He said on Sportsound: "Rodgers here for the period. He’s enjoying himself at the moment. He’s building a team. And I think there’s a little bit more to go on. I think he’ll go to the market again and try and find the player that could come in alongside Callum McGregor.

"Callum could play, actually, further forward for the team. But when it comes to Europe, where you’re looking for maybe two players to play in that number six, I think he could do with one, bigger, stronger, but still technically good player. And that may take a bit of money, but it could also be the one that would finish this team off."
