Brendan Rodgers is looking at multiple signings ahead of the window closing on Friday evening and is also targeting numerous exits, including if things go to plan Albian Ajeti, a Neil Lennon signing during that ill-fated summer of 2020.  With one year left on his contract, Ajeti has little to no chance of playing for Celtic again and this move to the Süper Lig side would suit all parties.  Let’s hope that it goes through.
