Celtic’s search for Joe Hart’s successor is well underway after the veteran prepares to hang up his gloves in the summer.
Replacing the keeper isn’t going to be an easy task, he brings so much more than quality to the Celtic team, his character and experience are irreplaceable.
Celtic have been linked to Ugurcan Cakir in recent weeks, with the player seemingly set for a Zoom call with manager Brendan Rodgers.
Now, another goalkeeper has caught Celtic’s eye—Werder Bremen’s Michael Zetterer.
According to reports from the German publication BILD, Celtic is showing concrete interest in Zetterer, who has stepped up impressively for the Bundesliga club this season. Initially the backup to Jiri Pavlenka, Zetterer has taken full advantage of his time in the limelight due to Pavlenka’s injuries.
With his contract set to expire next year, Zetterer is reportedly stalling on a new deal with Bremen, opting instead to see what offers might arise as the season ends. This situation puts Werder Bremen in a tough spot, potentially having to resign themselves to losing him unless they can convince him to stay.
