Brutally honest Troy Deeney has confessed he hasn't got everything he wanted from signing for Birmingham - as the striker revealed he knocked back a move to Celtic before the switch.
The veteran frontman is facing a sliding doors moment in his career with his deal up in the summer at the English Championship side, with a contract offer on the table from relegation-threatened Birmingham despite off the pitch issues stemming from an ownership tug of war. However, the Blues' captain admits he is taking his time to weigh up his options - noting that when he left Watford he had an option to move to the Scottish Premiership.
Deeney left the Hornets in the summer of 2021 after helping the club where he spent 11 years return to the English Premier League. That summer marked an overhaul at Celtic Park, with Ange Postecoglou arriving in Glasgow's east end to rebuild the side as he stepped into the hot seat to replace Neil Lennon.
