Blimey, Celtic just don't give up, do they? And their arrogance, assuming that he's going to be their player, just because they've got this obsession with him in their local press.
Be surprised if we improve in midfield, unless someone like Williams or JFC leaves. I hope Alfie commits, maybe offer him a deal with a release clause if we don’t go up this season?
Offering Doughty a better contract is probably all the more attractive seeing as any replacement would be an issue with the cap. Not saying that is the main reason, But might be an incentive to offer a little more.
I hope Alfie stays,but I fear his agent will be in his ear telling him how much Celtic can pay him compared with Charlton,after all agents will usually be looking at what they can earn,rather than what is best for the players at this stage of his career.

Celtic will want to see whether he has the searing pace still which makes him special before investing in him surely.
I hope, despite his alleged Millwall allegiance, that he has parents or extended family sensible enough to advise him to sign. If that pace is significantly diminished he becomes an ordinary player.
I had my Achilles operation at Princess Grace with Mr Bacarese Hamilton 6-7 years ago , knew the anaesthetist so got some photos , superb job and I got recommended Gazza’s old physio and he had magic hands and I made a full recovery . Good luck Alfie [Mod Warning: surgery photo below - AW]
Offering him a contract is just standard practice isn't it?
He's under the age of 24, so by offering him a new contract we'd be entitled to compensation if he rejects it and signs for another club (obviously depending on whether that club is English)

Does the contract amount offered affect the compensation?

Just has to be an improved contract than the one he's already on ..... then we get the full U24 entitlement. Unless he goes to Scotland, where we receiver a lesser compensation.
The compensation fee is not a standard amount ..... it may work on a percentage paid of his market valuation, as if he had signed his existing club's improved contract.
If player's fancy leaving us during this current TS era, then I'm happy to see them out.
Weird angle given the general positivity especially when we're talking a proper academy product who is looking a bright option for the future.
Not really as can sense from the complete silence that he'll be leaving. Would love him to stay but for now, I'll stick to my negative angle on this subject.

But it would be really funny if we sold him to Rangers in January

Steve Gallen will know.
