Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers addressed growing frustration surrounding the club's lack of summer transfer activity, stating it's "not his decision." The comments come after a disappointing 0-0 draw against Kazakhstan's Kairat Almaty in the UEFA Champions League play-off first leg on Tuesday.
Rodgers acknowledged the team "need to improve the squad," highlighting the need for reinforcements to compete at the highest level. Despite the manager's desire, Celtic's recruitment efforts have stalled, leaving fans anxious about their chances in the upcoming Champions League campaign.
The return leg against Kairat Almaty will be crucial, with betting odds favoring Celtic but a strong performance required to secure progression. A Champions League spot would be a significant boost for the club and its supporters, but the current squad depth remains a concern.
