Celtic are expected to complete a deal that will see Tom Rogic leave Parkhead for £4 million in the next 24 hours, according to a report from the Daily Mail.

But it appears that March’s 5-0 victory over St Mirren could prove to be his final appearance for the Bhoys as an exit is on the cards.

The Daily Mail has reported that the Australian is leaving for an unnamed Qatari club. The deal – which is set to be announced in the coming hours – will reportedly net Celtic £4 million.

TBR View: £4 million fee signifies a disappointing end to Rogic’s Celtic career

For much of his Celtic spell, many Hoops fans would have surely slammed the idea of selling Rogic for anything near £4 million.

He has scored 24 goals and provided 25 assists in the top flight for the Bhoys. In truth, it seemed almost inevitable that he would one day prove to be the next Celtic player to make a big-money move to the Premier League.

But Celtic have not turned to Rogic so far this season. And they have hardly struggled without him.

The reported fee may still take some by surprise. But perhaps the time is indeed right for all parties for Rogic to seek a new challenge.
