Celtic's Interest in Re-signing Carl Starfelt

According to a report from The Celtic Star on March 24, 2025, Celtic made an enquiry last summer about re-signing defender Carl Starfelt from Celta Vigo. Starfelt had previously transferred to the La Liga side in 2023 after a successful tenure at Celtic, where he contributed to five trophies over two seasons. However, the financial aspects of the deal were deemed too substantial for the Hoops, leading them to pursue other options, including the acquisition of Auston Trusty. ​

Kalidou Sidibe Emerges as a Transfer Target

As reported by GlasgowWorld on March 22, 2025, Celtic are considering a move for Kalidou Sidibe, a 26-year-old defensive midfielder currently playing for Guingamp in France's Ligue 1. Sidibe, who stands at an imposing six feet seven inches, has made 31 appearances this season, scoring two goals and providing five assists. With only one year remaining on his contract, the Hoops may see an opportunity to negotiate a transfer.

There will of course be even more news coming in the following days and weeks as the SPFL season concludes and the march towards ‘silly season’ comes over the horizon!
