Celtic, Rangers and Hearts in Summer Transfer Shuffle
Celtic’s Striker Kenny Drawing Interest
Celtic are open to selling Johnny Kenny this summer, with Millwall and Bolton Wanderers both submitting bids. The striker has been linked to several clubs, and the Glasgow side will consider any offer that meets their valuation. Kenny’s departure would clear a spot for a new forward to bolster Celtic’s attack ahead of the new campaign.
Atalanta’s Bakker on Celtic’s Radar
Versatile left‑sided player Mitchel Bakker, 26, is likely to leave Atalanta, and Celtic are among clubs monitoring the Dutchman. The Italian club is preparing for a squad overhaul, and Bakker could provide depth on the flank for the Scottish champions. A move would add experienced quality to Celtic’s midfield and defensive options.
Martin O’Neill on Transfer Assurances

Danilo’s Return to Brazil
Brazilian striker Danilo, who joined Rangers for a reported £6 million in 2023, is on the brink of a move to Botafogo back home. The Scottish side will receive a transfer fee, though details of the deal remain limited. Danilo’s departure marks the end of a short but notable spell at Ibrox.
Rangers Face Hurdles over Hearts Forward Braga
Rangers will find it difficult to afford a move for Hearts forward Claudio Braga, 26, this summer. The Scottish club’s budget constraints are limiting their ability to compete for the player. As a result, Hearts are likely to retain Braga for another season.
Hearts Linked with Beveren Keeper Beau Reus
Beveren goalkeeper Beau Reus has travelled to Scotland for a medical ahead of a proposed transfer to Hearts. The Scottish club are looking to strengthen their shot‑stopping options ahead of the new season. If completed, the deal will bring a new face to the Tynecastle goal.
Hearts Midfielder Tait Joins St Johnstone
