But Mailsport understands Rodgers is confident that one of his prime targets in this window will put pen to paper in the coming days. Kuhn will be the first part of Celtic’s recruitment plan in January with Rodgers also targeting a left-back and a striker, potentially on loan. Meanwhile, Rodgers is no closer to moving Swedish defender Gustaf Lagerbielke out of Parkhead during this window, despite reported interest from Italian clubs. He said: “Celtic will be stronger as this season goes on, especially with them not being in Europe. Celtic have set that standard over the last 10 to 15 years and that still has to be caught.”
