Celtic Snaps Up Hogh for £11m
25 Jul
Summary
- Celtic agrees to a fee exceeding £11 million for Kasper Hogh.
- Kasper Hogh is scheduled for a medical examination in the coming days.
- The attacker has played exclusively in Scandinavia before this transfer.
Celtic has reportedly agreed to terms with Norwegian club Bodo/Glimt for the transfer of Danish attacker Kasper Hogh. The reported fee for the 25-year-old is in excess of £11 million. Hogh is expected to undergo his medical examinations in the coming days, with the Scottish club aiming to complete the signing soon.
This acquisition signals Celtic's intent to bolster their attacking capabilities. Hogh, who has been a standout performer for Bodo/Glimt, has spent his entire career in Scandinavia, with previous stints in Denmark, Iceland, and Norway. The Norwegian club is reportedly accepting the substantial fee despite losing a key player mid-season.
Celtic has also been linked with a move for midfielder Mika Baur from Paderborn, though an agreement has not yet been reached. Baur is reportedly keen on a move to Parkhead, but his current club is holding out for a valuation they deem appropriate, even with the player entering the final year of his contract.
