Overview
- At his pre-match news conference, McKenna said there have been "no formal conversations" with Celtic and that his focus remains on Ipswich.
- McKenna is under contract at Ipswich until 2028, with reports indicating any approach would likely require around £5 million in compensation.
- Celtic appointed Martin O'Neill and Shaun Maloney as caretakers after Brendan Rodgers' resignation earlier this week, opening with a 4-0 win over Falkirk.
- Celtic explored a possible return for former boss Ange Postecoglou, but reporting indicates that route is unlikely to progress.
- Betting markets also feature former Celtic players Craig Bellamy and Robbie Keane among the shortest odds, with McKenna still widely touted as a leading candidate.
