The defender, whose future at Easter Road hangs in the balance, has been a key player for the club, but his silence on contract extensions has sparked speculations about a potential move.

Celtic's Champions League Ambitions

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is confident that his team can make an impact against German giants Bayern Munich. The two teams are set to clash in a Champions League showdown at Celtic Park next week. Rodgers believes that the home advantage and the team's recent form could be decisive factors in this high-stakes encounter.

Bayern's Perspective
