Star holds no regrets over Sheffield Wednesday transfer decision as he vanishes from Celtic without a trace

Liam Shaw has no regrets about his Celtic transfer as he moves to England again with Fleetwood Town.

The midfielder returns to the EFL after a loan stint at Wigan last campaign. He signed a four-year deal when joining the club from Sheffield Wednesday but with a year left on his contract, his exit hasn’t even been announced by Celtic.

Vanishing without a trace - in similar fashion to James McCarthy who also seemingly left after being removed from the club website - Shaw holds good memories of his time at Celtic. Leaving Sheffield Wednesday for Glasgow also isn’t something he regrets.

He told club media: “I got the phone call from my agent that Celtic were interested. It was a no brainer. A great experience. The standard of training has improved me. It was a pinch me moment (his debut vs Real Betis).

“When I started to play I was like, I’m here now, let’s do it. I thought I did well and we won the game. An experience I’ll hold for the rest of my life.”

Shaw added: “I don’t think you can live with regrets. It was the right move for me at that time going to Celtic and it was honestly a privilege to be part of it all. I’ve learned a lot obviously, training with those sorts of players – I’ve picked a lot of stuff up from them to put into my game.

“I’m getting on a bit now being 23, but in football terms that is and now I just need get my head down, play games and get my name back out there. I did play last season, but I feel great and ready to get a full season under my belt.”
