Celtic Ready to Break Transfer Record as O'Neill Confirms Timeline for Incoming Star
The 25-year-old Denmark striker scored 54 goals in 103 games for Bodo/Glimt and is set for a long-term deal after a medical.
- Celtic agreed to a club-record fee of £11m-plus to sign Danish striker Kasper Hogh from Bodo/Glimt. The 25-year-old is expected to undergo a medical and sign a long-term contract in the coming days.
- Following Daizen Maeda's switch to Ipswich Town, which generated £8m plus £2m in potential add-ons, Celtic ramped up recruitment activity. The record deal eclipses the £11m spent on Arne Engels two years ago.
- The 6ft 1in frontman netted six Champions League goals last season for Bodo/Glimt, scoring against Atletico Madrid, Inter Milan, and Manchester City. Prolific Hogh scored 54 goals and claimed 22 assists in 103 games overall.
- Hogh will form a new-look £17m frontline alongside new £6m signing Camilo Duran. The Parkhead board is backing the manager with this significant investment, marking a major statement of intent for squad development.
- Celts remain locked in talks with Bundesliga outfit Paderborn over a £4m deal for midfielder Mika Baur. The club also targeted Real Oviedo winger Haissem Hassan to bolster options for next month's Champions League play-off.
