Celtic are facing more competition to sign Sheffield Wednesday goalkeeper Pierce Charles this summer. Barry Bannan has explained why the 20-year-old would be an ideal signing. With only 12 months left on his current contract, Charles could be available for a low fee, as Wednesday’s perilous financial situation means that they will accept funds to generate cash. His current manager Henrik Pedersen told BBC Radio Sheffield in April 2026 that they will do everything they can to keep him for the future.

A report from talkSPORT indicates that Celtic are interested in signing Sheffield Wednesday goalkeeper Pierce Charles. Charles is expected to leave Wednesday this summer following their relegation to League One, and multiple clubs have shown an interest in signing him. Celtic are seeking to sign a new primary goalkeeper in the summer, as Kasper Schmeichel is likely to leave the club.

Sheffield Wednesday's goalkeeper Pierce Charles is described as a perfect candidate for Celtic, who will require a goalkeeper as Kasper Schmeichel is expected to leave. Charles has also been linked with Rangers and his contract with Sheffield Wednesday runs until 2027. Following the Owls' relegation to League One, he is considered a key asset that the club could sell for a fee.
