Premier League clubs eyeing Celtic academy star who could be Ben Doak 2.0

Celtic continued their strong start to life in the new-look Champions League format with a hard-fought 1-1 draw with Club Brugge at Parkhead on Wednesday.

The Hoops have only lost one of their five matches in the competition, drawing two and winning two, and are on course to secure a spot in the play-off round.

Brendan Rodgers’ side have made a brilliant start to the 2024/25 campaign in all competitions, as well as in Europe, as they are also in the final of the League Cup, which is due to be played at Hampden Park against Rangers next month.

Meanwhile, Celtic are three points clear of Aberdeen at the top of the Scottish Premiership table, and a whopping 11 points ahead of Rangers in third place.

The phenomenal season so far for the Glasgow giants does not, however, mean that it is likely to be a quiet month in the January transfer window, as there is already speculation building around Nicolas Kuhn’s future.

Premier League side Brentford are one team that is reportedly interested in the German winger ahead of January, whilst a starlet from the B team has also been linked with a move down south.

Premier League interest in Celtic’s teen sensation

According to Football Insider, there are a number of teams from England showing an interest in Celtic’s B team centre-forward Daniel Cummings.

The report names Premier League sides Wolverhampton Wanderers, Fulham, and Ipswich Town and Championship teams Sunderland and Burnley as being keen on the attacker.

It states that all of those clubs had scouts in attendance to watch the Scotland youth international score in a 1-0 win for the academy against Club Brugge in the UEFA Youth League on Wednesday.

Football Insider adds that a host of English teams are keeping tabs on his situation at Parkhead because his current contract is due to expire at the end of the 2024/25 campaign.
