Celtic and Rangers January transfer target set to return to Scottish Premiership rivals.
Rangers and Celtic’s January transfer target is likely to join a Scottish Premiership rival.
In January, he was linked with moves to Celtic and Rangers. However, Owen Beck has now confirmed a transfer to another Scottish team.
The 21-year-old had a hugely impressive first half of the season at Dundee before being recalled by parent club Liverpool to cover for long-term
injured duo Andy Robertson and Kostas Tsimikas, and reports suggested that both Old Firm clubs would compete for his signature if he became available again after his strong performances at Dens Park.
His return to Anfield coincided with a rare appearance in the Liverpool first team, coming off the bench in the team’s 4-0 away win at Bournemouth,
replacing Connor Bradley in the closing stages of the game, though he was an unused substitute in the FA Cup win over Norwich City the previous weekend.
And now Beck is set for a quick to the Scottish Premiership after the BBC reported the Welsh under-21 international will return to Dundee for another
loan deal, with the defender arriving at the club’s training ground on Monday to be was greeted by delighted supporters.
According to reports, Beck was eager to return to Dens Park for a second term in order to further his development, and he saw Dundee as the ideal
spot to do so after making 17 appearances for them earlier in the season.
The defender still has two and a half years left on his current contract with the Merseyside giants, and he hopes that a strong finish to the season north
of the border could lead to additional opportunities with the Anfield first team.
However, if that does not happen, Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is reported to be interested in signing Beck again in the summer.
