Daizen Maeda leaving Celtic?
Team Talk has reported that Daizen Maeda has attracted interest from several European clubs, including some in Germany, with these clubs considering a summer move for the player. Maeda is currently contracted with Celtic until 2027, which positions the club to demand a substantial transfer fee. Although Maeda is content at Celtic, he is also eager to compete at the highest level. Celtic intends to negotiate a contract renewal with Maeda before the season concludes to maintain his value for the next transfer window. Nonetheless, financial considerations may prevail, as Celtic has a precedent of selling players when they reach peak market value.
Celtic fans are concerned about the potential sale of Daizen Maeda, who is considered their best player currently and a Player of the Year contender. There is speculation that Celtic might sell him if a good offer comes in, based on their model of cashing in at the right time. The discussion suggests that unless a bid of £20 million or more is made, there is no point in selling him. He has significantly improved his game, contributing with goals, movement, and touch.
Brendan Rodgers admits bigger clubs are bound to have an eye on Daizen Maeda after the Celtic striker hit the 25 goal mark. He symbolises everything about the Celtic side and has shown his efficiency at the highest level, including the Champions League. His performance and work rate are likely to attract attention from bigger clubs.
