O’Neill eyes ‘couple of new faces’ for CelticImage source, SNSImage caption, Celtic’s friendly with Middlesbrough did not attract a large crowdPublished3 hours agoMartin O’Neill insists Celtic are “making some progress” in introducing more new faces to his squad as he opened up on the failure to re-sign Kelechi Iheanacho and Marcelo Saracchi.The Scottish champions are again facing criticism from their own fans for their lack of summer transfer activity, with some suggesting it led to a poor attendance at Saturday’s 1-1 pre-season friendly draw at home to Middlesbrough.
Camilo Duran, the striker brought in from Qarabag, struck Celtic’s equaliser after David Strelec, who had previously been linked with the Glasgow club, had given the Championship side the lead.
The Colombian, who has now scored twice in pre-season, is the club’s only summer addition so far, but O’Neill insisted: “We will bolster the squad.
“We are making some progress. We’ll hopefully see a couple of new faces by the time that we kick the season off.”
