# Celtic: Fans react as Brody Paterson signs a new contract

**Celtic are clearly planning for the future as the [club](https://twitter.com/CelticFC/status/1265678502675861507?s=20) have announced that academy player Brody Paterson has signed a new three-year contract extension. A lot of the Hoops fan base are reacting to the news and hoping it means that there will be more contract news in the near future.**

The 19 year-old Scotsman is an attacking player, who normally is selected on the wing and favours the left side, per [Transfermarkt.](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/brody-paterson/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/536536) Even though this is great news for the player, the club and fans, many Celts are asking and even hoping that this means Odsonne Edouard will sign a new contract imminently.

The French striker has attracted interest from a host of Premier League sides, including Newcastle as well as Arsenal, via [The Express.](https://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/1281325/Newcastle-United-transfer-news-Odsonne-Edouard-Celtic-Arsenal)

It is easy to see why clubs are keeping tabs on the player and why fans are desperate for him to extend his stay, as he is only 22-years-old and has already managed 60 goals in 126 appearances for the Bhoys, via [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/odsonne-edouard/profil/spieler/344152).

His contract doesn’t expire until 2022, but a new contract would signal both the player’s intent to stay and the club’s intent to hold on to star players, after losing attackers like [Moussa Dembele](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/celtic-glasgow/startseite/verein/371) in the past.

Here is what fans have to say following the news:
