Fans on Twitter react to Caulker exit
Some Celtic fans on Twitter have been calling for their club to snap up Steven Caulker following his departure from QPR.
Caulker, who played under Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers at Swansea, has previously held talks with the Glasgow club about a potential move.
Celtic have agreed the signing of defender Marvin Compper from RB Leipzig, but some Bhoys fans would also like to see Caulker arrive at Parkhead.
Steven Caulker is seven years younger than Compper, has bags of potential, has played for more and far bigger clubs than him and is also eligible to play in Europe this season. He’s also a free agent. I find it very strange why Rodgers has went for Compper instead of Caulker

Fans of other clubs also believe Caulker might be a useful signing…
Would probably take Steven Caulker at Rangers

I’d take Caulker tbh, but only if he’s committed to the club & the gaffer otherwise i’d prefer nobody, can’t keep getting players in on big wages who suck the life outta the club, we need players with passion (Vaughan) is a good example, he’ll eventually come good too imo #SAFC

Just seen that defender Steve Caulker has left QPR.. Would love Leeds to sign him in January, him & Jansson would be a good defensive partnership👌#lufc #mot

He actually turns 26 tomorrow and you wonder whether the release means a move is pending, Celtic seems logical (reuniting with Brendan Rodgers). Tweeted before the most recent game against QPR that Caulker would be one of the few I’d have from their squad.

Steven caulker released by Qpr…free transfer wow he’s had his problems who hasn’t but I think this would be good for wigan and Steven.🙏🙏

We have a severe defender crisis at Stoke. Should we sign free agent Caulker (who used to be ok) or bid for young Alfie Mawson from Swansea who is decent? Or even try and sign both ?

If Steven Caulker has mastered his personal issues then I’d definitely consider him on a free transfer. #NFFC

I’d take a punt on Caulker. Could be a big player if focussed

Steven Caulker going free I’d have him here now over wimmer

Steven Caulker on a free. I’d get him signed up #NUFC

Any side in the Championship would benefit from Caulker on top of his game – hope he finds his way his been through a lot and deserves another shot at a club with ambition

Stephen Caulker is a free agent. We desperately need centre back cover. Which means Bruce won't sign him, and sign an exciting CM who can rip open defences, yet bench him and continue to play Glenn Whelan and Mile Jedinak together. #AVFC 👀
