Rodgers

The Celtics beat Dundee United 5-0 last month to beat Dundee United 5-0 to defeat his home Scottish Premier League champion 5-0.

Adam Idah and Nicolas Kuhn won the day’s victory and title after Ryan Strain’s goal, which left the rest of the rest of the league games relatively stress-free.

However, there was some negative news as Jota was struggling with a knee injury before the half-time game, and it has since been confirmed that he will be between six and nine months between six and nine months.

This means that when the basketball team takes to Hampden Park to face Aberdeen in the SFA Cup final next weekend, the Portuguese winger will be out of the way and he will miss the start of the next season.

However, Jota isn’t the only Celtic star, as the manager has confirmed that Reo Hatate will miss the game due to injury, so the Brendan Rodgers will not be able to call at the National Stadium.

Why Losing Fanatic Hate Is a Big Strike

The Northern Ireland coach recently revealed that the Japanese International team was injured in Aberdeen’s 5-1 victory, a mistake of “unnecessary” challenge.

Rodgers confirmed that if all goes well, the 27-year-old should be fit for preseason, but he won’t be on the team heading to Hampden Park for Dons, which is a blow to basketball.

Throughout the campaign, he has played the Celtics in the middle of the park as he can play an impact on the top of the court and plays a key role in the club’s SFA Cup semi-final defeat of St. Johnstone.

As you can see in the highlights above, the Japanese midfield star created three of five goals to assist Callum McGregor, Daizen Maeda and Adam Idah to help his team reach the finals of the game, a game he will miss now.

Hatate has attracted attention for his performance in the Premier League with the Scottish Giants as he demonstrated his goal-scoring ability and created high-quality opportunities at an extraordinary pace.

As you can see in the table above, the Celtics star has achieved 24 goals, and the “big chance” adds up in the department’s 37 appearances, which further illustrates why losing him hurts so much for Rodgers.

The Scottish Sun recently reported that Udinese has paid a lot of money for Japan International in the upcoming summer transfer window, indicating that the team is paying attention to his basketball performance.

Therefore, the Celtic may decide to provide firm service to his services before Udinese or any other team before the 2025/26 campaign.

With that in mind, Rodgers can provide an excellent alternative to haters by pushing the club to reach a deal for Motherwell midfielder Lennon Miller, who reportedly reportedly had a transfer target for basketball circles before the summer window.

Why should the Celtics sign Lennon Miller

The Celtics should sign Scotland U21 International, reportedly £5m, as he is a very young talent with the potential to be a long-term signing and quality that can have a direct impact on Parkhead.

Miller was 19 until August and he had made 60 appearances in Motherwell’s Premier League, suggesting he could run in Parkhead as he already knew the country and the league.

The 18-year-old, called “absurd” by expert Pundit James McFadden, has become the starring player in the midfield for many years, which may be a possible replacement for the 28-year-old Hatate.

Miller’s performance in the Premier League shows that he will be an excellent replacement for Japanese stars next season as he won the PFA Player of the Year award in Scotland’s top flight, which shows that his peers have rated him highly.

The Scots’ goal threat isn’t like he scored two goals in the Premier League, but the creative and defensive aspects of his game show that he could be a great signing for Rodgers and Celtics this summer.

As you can see in the table above, Miller offers a similar number of “big opportunities” for each game, while creating six goals for teammates.

Scottish Youth International also proved itself to be an active and effective defender in the middle of the park, with 9.5 tackles, interceptions and recovery per game and a 52% duel success rate.

Although Hatate scored only 4.3 times per game and lost 56% of his duel, it suggests that Miller can upgrade him from a poverty perspective, which could make him particularly valuable on the European stage when the Celtics faced more difficult challenges.

So, whether it’s a direct replacement or when injured as a midfielder, the Motherwell star can be a brilliant signing to replace hatred, whether it’s a direct replacement or as a deep option, as he can bring the party’s creativity and defensiveness at the Premier League level.
