The 19-year-old right back was trusted by Brendan Rodgers to start for the first team in three consecutive away matches, including a Europa League tie away to Red Star Belgrade. This will surely lead to Donovan remaining in the first team picture, though to which extent remains to be seen. Another Championship side managed by a former Celt is Ayr United, who have taken Lenny Agbaire, Kyle Ure and Jude Bonnar on loan from Parkhead this season. Stephen Welsh isn’t exactly a young player, but still falls into the bracket of academy graduates on the fringes of the first team. Another youngster to depart the club this summer is Mitchel Frame, but his move to Aberdeen in August was a permanent one.
