    Celtic's second largest shareholder, Lindsell Train Limited, has reduced its shareholding in the club.


    Confirmed in the standard form for notification of major holdings, the mysterious billionaire firm has dropped its shareholding by 0.69 percent.

    This equates to 750,000 shares for the company who are also the third-largest shareholders in Serie A giants Juventus after the Agnelli family and crypto firm Tether.

    The announcement was made today on Tuesday, October 14, in relation to the crossed threshold one week ago.

    Lindsell Train's total voting rights attached to shares in Celtic PLC have decreased to 15.70 percent, representing 16,902,971 voting rights.

    This is a decrease from the previous notification of 16.39 percent.

    Celtic's majority shareholder remains Dermot Desmond, who essentially acquired control of the club in 1999 when he bought Fergus McCann's remaining stake.

    Hoping it was to the trust but probably unlikely

    Interesting timing for this move although in the context of the percentage of Celtic shares they own it does not seem to be a major move at least not now.
