Your Celtic starting line up in 2024 if the transfer rumours are true - gallery

Celtic "might have to" do some work in the January transfer window, according to manager Brendan Rodgers if certain key players are called up to play in the Asian Cup.

The Hoops have built up a five-point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership but they have the opportunity to move eight clear of rivals Rangers on Sunday when they head to Ayrshire to face Kilmarnock.

Amid a hectic run of fixtures, Rodgers has accepted he could be without the likes of talisman Kyogo Furuhashi, Oh Hyeon-hyu, Daizen Maeda and Yang Hyun-jun for at least a full month with the quartet all recently capped for their respective countries.

Should that eventuality occur, that would leave the Parkhead boss extremely light of attacking options and without a recognised striker after the winter break. Rodgers admitted earlier this week: "Obviously we have been trying to anticipate the guys over the last few months who are going away to the Asian Cup, so clearly if Daizen and Kyogo are away then we would have to do something in the market."

However, there have been a list of players already linked with a move to Celtic next month, including Aberdeen top goal scorer Bojan Miovski. Here we take a look at the possible Celtic starting XI after the January window if the latest rumours prove true:
