The situation surrounding Celtic’s young talent Daniel Kelly is growing increasingly tense as the club struggles to secure his long-term future.
Renowned Italian transfer expert Fabrizio Romano has highlighted that Kelly could potentially leave the club for free come January if a new contract isn’t agreed upon soon.

Celtic have already seen one promising youngster, Rocco Vata, exit this transfer window, moving to Watford after also scoring his first senior goal for the Hoops last season. The club is evidently keen to avoid a repeat with Kelly, having rebuffed all interest so far, including from major European clubs like Bayer Leverkusen, as noted by Romano.
Kelly’s rise to the first team and his debut goal have made him a player to watch, but without a new deal, his future at Celtic hangs in the balance. As January approaches, it could become a pivotal moment for both Kelly and Celtic, depending on how negotiations unfold.
