Beck, who impressed last season on loan at Dundee, caught the eye of several clubs, including Celtic. However, the situation changed when Beck made an appearance for Liverpool, ruling out the possibility of a January move to Celtic due to FIFA’s regulations on playing for multiple clubs in one season.

Despite the interest from Celtic and his strong performances, Beck’s immediate future might be taking a different turn. Birmingham City, now managed by former Celtic coach Chris Davies, has made an approach for the young Welshman, reports Football Scotland.

The competition for Beck is stiff, with several Championship clubs also monitoring his situation, with many. clubs clearly interested after his impressive season with Dundee in the SPFL.

While Celtic remains interested in bolstering their left-back position, Beck appears to have slipped down their priority list, according to Football Scotland. As Celtic continues their search, it seems Beck might be headed elsewhere, with Birmingham City leading the charge.
