Daniel Cummings plus three more Celtic B Team players set to leave club | OneFootball

Celtic will be parting ways with three academy players this summer, according to a report…

According to Daily Record, goalkeeper Joe Morrison, defender Alasdair Davidson, and winger Lewis Dobbie will all depart the club at the end of the season when their contracts expire. The trio progressed through the youth system, each earning appearances for the B team during their time at the club.

Morrison was a backup goalkeeper for Celtic’s Champions League squad

Last season, Morrison was selected as a backup goalkeeper for Celtic’s Champions League squad, while Davidson earned two caps for Scotland’s U17 team following his debut in October 2022. Additionally, Morrison spent part of this season on loan at Stenhousemuir in League One.

Dobbie has had a productive season with Celtic B, netting 13 goals in 24 appearances, averaging a strike every 124 minutes for Stephen McManus’ side. He also featured twice in both the UEFA Youth League and Challenge Cup.

Dobbie scored a stunning backheel against theRangers

In the 2023 Youth Cup final against theRangers, Dobbie scored a stunning backheel in a thrilling 6-5 victory for Celtic. The club’s senior manager, Ange Postecoglou, was seen in the Hampden stands for the match, accompanied by chairman Peter Lawwell and CEO Michael Nicholson.

Daniel Cummings also joining the list of summer exits at Celtic

All three youth players will be seeking new opportunities this summer. The trio will be joining Daniel Cummings, who despite making his senior debut against Aston Villa in the Champions League group phase in January, will depart the club on a free transfer, with Celtic receiving a cross border development fee.

Cummings failed to impress in the Glasgow Cup Final penalty shoot-our defeat to theRangers B Team on Tuesday night which was shown live on Celtic TV.

Cummings joins a long list of Celtic academy prospects that will make the move to England and most likely face immediate football obscurity with a lower-end English Premier League side.

Celtic announced ‘hugely significant’ news on new deal with adidas

This update comes after Celtic’s announcement of a “landmark” 10-year contract extension with kit supplier Adidas, marking both the longest kit deal in Scottish football and the biggest in the club’s history. Michael Nicholson said: “This is a hugely significant announcement for Celtic, the biggest official kit supplier partnership in the club’s history and one we are sure will delight our supporters worldwide, allowing us to look to the future together with confidence.”
