Celtic could have another new coach added to their ranks if reports are to be believed.
The Hoops have made an approach for Chelsea U21s coach Calum McFarlane as they look to revamp their backroom staff.
There were wholesale changes after Brendan Rodgers’ resignation, which included John Kennedy leaving Celtic after 25 years.
McFarlane would come with pedigree having previously coached at Manchester City and is currently working with a talented crop of Chelsea youngsters.
If he were to join, it could open up a whole new world of possibilities in the January transfer window where the club are likely to do business.
Ahead of a potential appointment, 67 Hail Hail spoke to The Chelsea Chronicle’s Jack Drury, who named three young Chelsea stars that could be recommended to the Hoops.

“Shumaira Mheuka has already been handed a chance for the first team at Chelsea, starting in the Conference League knockout stage last campaign. This season though, the striker has hit a new level.
