Celtic scouting Will Ferry as potential left-back signing

Summary

Celtic are reportedly monitoring Will Ferry as they seek a new left-back. The Dundee United defender has attracted interest after regular appearances, contributing 4 goals and 14 assists in 85 matches since joining his current club. Despite a rejected transfer to Czechia, Ferry remains a target alongside others like James Penrice. Celtic recently lost Marcelo Saracchi and need a suitable understudy for Kieran Tierney. Ferry's contract expires in June 2027, prompting a need for United to consider offers before he becomes a free agent.
