Kasper Hogh among three Celtic players whose stock has dropped this season

Celtic and Martin O'Neill already appear to be facing a make-or-break period of the 2026-27 campaign at Parkhead.

The manager has used the international break to question his future, despite the Hoops sitting top of the Scottish Premiership table.

Two Old Firm defeats to Rangers and Derek McInnes' tactics, separated by a loss to Ferencvaros, have clearly taken a toll on the 74-year-old.

However, Football Insider understands that O'Neill has plans when coming against Motherwell after the break, suggesting that he's not ready to give up.

Success in the Scottish Premiership and Europa League would certainly help salvage Celtic's season, but they may have to dive back into the transfer market.

Football Insider has looked into three players who have suffered a drop in form, and therefore, a drop in valuation in the early stages of the season.

Kasper Hogh

It's been a rollercoaster of an arrival in Scotland for Kasper Hogh, one that started with a debut against Dundee that couldn't have gone any worse.

Then, he netted a hat-trick against Kilmarnock, but he hasn't netted since. The £11million spent on him now appears to be quite the waste of money.

Sebastian Tounetki

Sebastian Tounetki is a bit of a weird one. He arrived with plenty of expectation on his shoulders, and delivered during his first season in Scotland.

Fans quickly fell in love with the winger, but he only has two goal contributions in 12 games this term, coming off the bench for many of his appearances.

Callum McGregor

It seems harsh to hit out at Callum McGregor, who has become a Celtic legend at Parkhead, but he looks to be way beyond his years now.

The 33-year-old no longer looks like the same player that he used to be, and he's dragging the rest of the team down to his level on the pitch.
