Owen Beck joins EFL Championship club as Celtic ‘target’ seals latest loan switch

Owen Beck has completed his loan move to Blackburn Rovers. 

The Liverpool starlet, who impressed up in Scotland with Dundee last season, was believed to have been on Celtic’s transfer radar. 

Brendan Rodgers’ side have been on the hunt to provide Greg Taylor with competition at left-back.

But the Scottish giants have opted to pursue a move for Barcelona’s Alex Valle before Friday’s deadline. 

That’s resulted in Blackburn swooping to land Beck on a season-long loan. 

The English Championship outfit host Blackpool at Ewood Park in the Carabao Cup tonight - but it’s come too early for Beck, despite the defender completing a full pre-season with Liverpool.
