Celtic supporters have called for the UK Takeover Panel to examine the shareholding of major shareholder Dermot Desmond, according to a report from The Celtic Star on November 7, 2026.

The supporters' group argues that Desmond's stake may trigger mandatory offer rules, and they want regulatory scrutiny to ensure compliance with takeover regulations.

The club has not commented on the request. Desmond has been a significant shareholder for many years.
