Early Move on the Cards for Kelly
Millwall is actively engaging in discussions with Celtic to expedite the transfer of young talent Daniel Kelly. The clubs are looking to finalize a deal that would see the 18-year-old midfielder join the Championship side this summer, instead of the initially agreed January transfer.
Pre-Contract Agreement in Place
Kelly, whose contract with Celtic is set to expire at the end of December, has already signed a pre-contract with Millwall. This agreement would ordinarily result in Kelly moving to England in January. However, Millwall is eager to bring the date forward by five months, allowing Kelly to begin his tenure with the Lions as early as this month.
Integration into Millwall’s Squad a Priority
Neil Harris, Millwall’s manager, is keen to have Kelly join the squad at the earliest to strengthen his team options. The central midfielder has already demonstrated his capabilities this season by contributing to Celtic’s B team with two goals and an assist in the Lowland league.
Millwall’s Mixed Start to the Season
The London club began their Championship campaign with a loss to Watford but bounced back with a victory in the EFL Cup. Harris is hopeful that Kelly’s early inclusion could provide an additional boost to the team’s performance from the start of the season.
Rodgers Confirms Kelly’s Exclusion from Celtic’s First Team
Brendan Rodgers, the manager of Celtic, has made it clear that Kelly will not be part of the first-team squad due to the ongoing contract negotiations. This decision has been met with criticism from Celtic fans, who have expressed their displeasure with the club’s handling of the situation.
Kelly’s Record with Celtic
Despite the off-field controversies, Kelly has shown promise on the pitch, scoring once in six appearances for Celtic’s first team. The Scotland Under-19 international’s early move could be a significant step in his burgeoning career.
Celtic’s Transfer Movements Continue
In related news, Celtic has reached an agreement with Adam Idah following a breakthrough in negotiations. This development indicates a busy transfer period for the Scottish club.
