Record Breaking Bid Rejected as Celtic Get Set to Sign Centre Back

BRENDAN RODGERS has told Celtic fans if the club can get Mulumbo and Benkovic over the line for tomorrow that looks like all the business Celtic will do on deadline day.

Celtic have been chasing Benkovic for some time and look to have finally got their man on-loan after Leicester signed the defender from Zagreb this summer.

The £13million man was at Celtic Park to watch the bhoys beat Suduva 3-0 to book their place in the Europa League group stages and Rodgers is hopeful he and Mulumbu will be Celtic players tomorrow.

Rodgers was hopeful of bringing in some more players but it looks like any other leads the club had have gone silent.

The Celtic manager also told the Celtic fans he does not foresee Moussa Dembele leaving the club tomorrow after Celtic knocked back a ‘substantial’ bid for the Frenchman from Lyon.
