Bobby Clark Set to Join Celtic as Salzburg Star Targets £6 Million Transfer Sensation
Former Liverpool prodigy Bobby Clark is nearing a transfer to Celtic from Red Bull Salzburg, as recent reports suggest. The 20-year-old midfielder is expected to complete his move for approximately £6 million this January.
Bobby Clark’s Career Moves
Bobby Clark left Liverpool in the summer of 2024 for a £10 million deal to join Red Bull Salzburg under former coach Pep Ljinders. Despite his successful stint at Anfield, where he made 15 appearances in his final season, Clark returned to Britain to play for Derby County on loan.
Potential Transfer to Celtic
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is keen to bolster his squad and sees Clark as a valuable addition. The young talent, who has represented England at youth levels including U16 upwards, is viewed as one of the top emerging players in Europe.

Managerial Insight
Pep Ljinders previously praised Clark, describing him as “unpredictable on the ball” and an ambitious player eager to create scoring opportunities. His departure from Salzburg has paved the way for a potential new chapter at Celtic.
Rodgers is determined to improve team performance after a disappointing last transfer window, making Clark a prime target as the January transfer window approaches. This move could significantly enhance Celtic’s midfield options.
