Gordon eyeing retirement at the end of the season
Craig Gordon is reportedly considering retiring at the end of this season after letting his contract run down at Celtic.
According to Football Insider, a source close to Celtic has revealed that the veteran goalkeeper will not look to force a move away in January in the pursuit of first-team football.
Instead the 36-year-old, who is reportedly earning around £20,000-a-week, is said to be considering seeing out the remainder of the season at Celtic before calling time on his playing career once his contract expires.

Do you think Gordon will retire at the end of the season?
Yes
No
Both Fraser Forster and Scott Bain are said to be first and second choice respectively, meaning Gordon’s game time will be incredibly limited for the remainder of the season.
The 36-year-old has enjoyed a trophy-laden spell with Celtic, winning five league titles as well as the Scottish Cup and League cup four times apiece, since signing for the club in 2014.
