Dermot Desmond told to there is one thing he can do to ‘save’ Celtic

Celtic fans are at the end of their tether with Dermot Desmond and the Parkhead board.

Desmond has long viewed the Celtic supporters with contempt as they question not only his involvement in club affairs, but also the strange amount of power he holds over the Parhead board.

And a Celtic lurch from one disaster to the next on and off the park, the fans have been mobilising for change in the Celtic boardroom.

And now, it seems, that Desmond has been told that there is one thing he can do to ‘save’ Celtic by former Everton CEO, Keith Wyness.

Dermot Desmond told to ‘sell’ Celtic

Strictly speaking, Desmond can’t sell Celtic because he doesn’t own the club but Wyness reckons if the Irish billionaire sells his stake in the club, it could stop the rot at the Parkhead club.

Wyness told Football Insider‘s Inside Track podcast: “I think at the end of the season, the Celtic fans may have one of those situations where they wish that they had kept him [Lawwell] for a couple of seasons, because we’ll have to see what goes on. It does seem to me that Dermot’s had his time now as the owner.

“Maybe he should sell Celtic and look at a renewal. It’s happened in Celtic’s past before when a new owner’s come in and saved the club and pushed on and done really well.

“And it does smack to me that Celtic need refreshing at this moment, things are stale, there’s dissatisfaction in the camp with both sides.

“So let’s just see what goes on over the summer. But I think it’s going to be a mediocre season at best for them.”

Desmond will never sell his Celtic shares. That has been made abundantly clear.

So quite how Celtic get rid of the family dynasty is a mystery. And if he were to sell up, who would be willing to spend the estimated £100m it would take to buy him out?
