Transfer talk seems to be the order of the day as Celtic, with a title run in and a Scottish Cup Final to look forward, look to plan for next season.

We told this morning how Charles Pickel wants to join Celtic and the price that Brendan Rodgers will need to pay for Sunderland goalkeeper, Anthony Patterson.

And now, it seems that a player signed by Ange Postecoglou in 2022 could be on his way out if Aberdeen get their way.

Benjamin Siegrist‘s Celtic career has been a bit of a strange one. Signed for free by the former Australian gaffer, the feeling was that the Swiss stopper could provide some decent comPetition for Joe Hart.

But it wasn’t to be for Siegrist as up until now, he has only made two appearances for Celtic in two seasons.

But despite that, it appears that he is on Aberdeen’s radar should Kelle Roos not decide to sign a new contract at the club.

According to the Daily Record, Roos is waiting to speak to incoming Dons manager, Jimmy Thelin, before making a decision on his future and should he fail to commit, the report says, “Aberdeen could move for Celtic back-up Benji Siegrist if Roos leaves.”

Siegrist saw a Parkhead exit in January collapse after Sturm Graz dropped their initial interest in the former Switzerland u21 international.

Even with Hart retiring, it looks like the 32-year-old clearly doesn’t have a future at the club and is likely to be moved on this summer.
