Rodgers predicts more ins and outs

Brendan Rodgers has hinted at further comings and goings at Celtic Park this month, with three players already signed.

“We’ve got a big squad. There will be players that naturally will want to go and play. We can hopefully do more business.”

Whatmough signs new Pompey deal

Jack Whatmough, linked with both Celtic and Rangers this month, has put an end to the speculation by signing a new deal with current side Portsmouth.

The 22-year-old centre-back’s contract at Fratton Park was up in the summer but he has signed an extension, all but confirming he won’t be going anywhere in this window.

Pompey currently sit top of League One.

Tierney injury still a problem

Brendan Rodgers has confirmed that Kieran Tierney’s injury problems are ongoing, but did not go into details when discussing the left-back’s issues.

Rodgers said: “He’s still unavailable. He’s working with the medical team with this issue, but he’s still injured at the moment. We’ll give him a bit of time and see how he’s doing.”
