Arne Engels is set to leave Celtic for West Ham in a deal worth around £22m — so who replaces him as Martin O’Neill’s side head to Tannadice to face Dundee United in the Premier Sports Cup?
We preview **Dundee United v Celtic**, looking at the likely Celtic starting XI, the impact of Engels’ departure, whether new signing **Mika Baur** could make his debut and how Celtic’s new-look attack could line up.
After an impressive five-goal performance last weekend, can Celtic continue the early-season momentum and book their place in the next round before attention turns to the huge Champions League play-off against LASK?
We also discuss Celtic’s summer transfer business so far, with around £27m spent but potentially more than £30m brought back in through player sales — and why Engels must now be replaced before the transfer window closes.
