No way back for Compper after latest comments

Celtic centre-back Marvin Compper has been highly critical of manager Brendan Rodgers after his lack of playing time, questioning why he isn’t getting any minutes and revealing that the Hoops tried to move him on before the summer transfer window closed.

Compper joined Celtic from RB Leipzig in January 2018 but has only gone on to make one appearance – vs Morton (3/3/18). The 33-year-old, who has played for the likes of Stuttgart, Borussia Monchengladbach, Hoffenheim, Fiorentina and Leipzig, is a victim of poor misfortune.

He spent the majority of his debut season sidelined with a calf injury and hasn’t made the matchday squad in one game this campaign.
