John Kennedy is confident Celtic can hold on to their top men for next season.
The Hoops coach knows several stars are in demand on the back of clinching the Premiership title.
Southampton have been linked with a bid for Olivier Ntcham, while Odsonne Edouard and Kris Ajer are on the wishlists of clubs across the continent.
But Kennedy is convinced the Parkhead side’s main assets will want to stick around for the bid for 10-in-a-row.
He said: “It's the same every year at Celtic.
“There's always the challenge of clubs bidding for players and wanting to take them.
"In a way it's nice because you know you have a group of players of value, and they are assets for the club.
"We are in a position now where we do have a good squad with a lot of good young players in there.
"We understand they will be attracting interest from elsewhere but we want to try to hold on to them.
"If we can keep this group together then they are only going to improve and get better."
