Celtic Recall Defender Stephen Welsh From Loan
12 Jan
Summary
- Stephen Welsh recalled to bolster Celtic's central defence options.
- Welsh made 17 appearances for Motherwell, keeping nine clean sheets.
- Cameron Carter-Vickers is currently recovering from a long-term injury.
Defender Stephen Welsh has been recalled by Celtic from his loan spell at Motherwell. During his time with Motherwell, Welsh made 17 appearances and was instrumental in the team achieving nine clean sheets.
This recall is set to bolster Celtic's central defensive options. The team recently added right-back Julian Araujo during the January transfer window and now brings back Welsh. This move comes at a time when key defenders Liam Scales and Auston Trusty have been partnering, and centre-back Cameron Carter-Vickers remains sidelined with a long-term injury.
Welsh's previous loan experiences include stints with Greenock Morton and Belgian side Mechelen. His return provides further depth and experience to Celtic's squad as they continue their campaign in the Scottish Premiership.
