Adam Montgomery set for Celtic loan exit as Ange Postecoglou maps out career path

Celtic are set to send rising defensive star Adam Montgomery on-loan for the second half of the season.

Hoops boss Ange Postecoglou has high hopes for the 19-year-old and that was part of the reason he pitched him into his first-team fold at the start of the season.

Celtic also handed him a new contract until 2025 last year.

Montgomery has already played in the Champions League qualifiers and in the Europa League.

He has already made 18 appearances all-in but now that Postecoglou has added to his squad in this window he wants Montgomery to go out and get a regular run of first-team games.

Postecoglou feels that is the next part of his development before he was to return to Parkhead and push for the Celtic first-team again in the summer.

Celtic have already put a few of their squad players out on loan with Liam Shaw going to Motherwell and Osaze Urhoghide holding talks over a similar move to Dundee.
