Celtic Targets Stoke City's Million Manhoef: Transfer Rumors Heat Up

Celtic is reportedly targeting Stoke City's Dutch winger Million Manhoef, adding to the transfer buzz in Scottish football.

Celtic is reportedly setting their sights on Stoke City's Dutch winger, Million Manhoef. The 22-year-old has been a standout performer for Stoke, and his potential move to Celtic could be a significant boost for the Scottish Premiership giants. Manhoef, who has previously been linked with Rangers, is known for his pace, dribbling skills, and ability to create chances.

Assistant coach Billy Dodds has emphasized Rangers' focus on their upcoming match against Aberdeen, despite the looming second leg of the Europa League quarter-final against Athletic Bilbao. Dodds stated, 'We are fully focused on Aberdeen and will not let the European tie distract us.'

Dundee United manager Jim Goodwin has praised Liverpool loanee Luca Stephenson for his contributions this season. Unfortunately, Stephenson's campaign has been cut short due to an upcoming surgery. Goodwin said, 'Luca has been a fantastic addition to our squad, and we wish him a speedy recovery.'

Hibernian striker Kieron Bowie is optimistic about next season, promising fans a better version of himself after an injury-plagued campaign. Bowie stated, 'I’ve learned a lot this season, and I’m determined to come back stronger.'

Aberdeen captain Graeme Shinnie believes the team's resilience has been tested and strengthened by their up-and-down season. Shinnie said, 'We’ve faced many challenges, but we’ve grown as a team and are ready for the next phase.'

Scotland defender Kieran Tierney, set to return to Celtic this summer, was denied a goal by VAR in a rare Premier League start as Arsenal drew with Brentford. Despite the setback, Tierney's performance was commendable.

Dundee defender Clark Robertson is determined to avoid relegation and is focused on halting in-form Hibernian. Robertson said, 'We’re fighting for every point, and we’ll give it our all in the upcoming matches.'
