Gustaf Lagerbielke’s failed move from Celtic to Lecce in January was a big disappointment in the world of transfers. The Swedish player, rarely used by Brendan Rodgers at Celtic Park, was eagerly looking forward to his move to Italy, only to have it fall through due to the fitness of Cameron Carter-Vickers.
Expressing his desire to leave Celtic and play in Serie A, Lagerbielke made it clear in the Italian media that he was keen on regular playing time. With interest from some Italian clubs, as reported by Aftonbladet, there seems to be hope for the defender in the next transfer window.
According to a podcast called Question Disco, Lagerbielke’s future in Italy is still a possibility, with three clubs reportedly interested in signing him. This could be a fresh start for the 23-year-old, who has had minimal playing time at Celtic since the failed transfer.
With little appearances in match day squads, Lagerbielke’s future may lie in Italy, away from Brendan Rodgers. The upcoming transfer window could be his chance to make a move to a new club and get the playing time he desires.
