Celtic fans will be hoping that the club are working hard behind the scenes to add more players to the squad before the transfer window deadline tomorrow night.
With less than 48 hours to go, fans are getting twitchy as completed Celtic transfer business is a total of just two players being brought to Paradise over the last four weeks.
Mark Guidi told Celtic fans that he expects a flurry of transfer business to be coming to the fore by 11am on Monday morning.
How much should Celtic pay to sign Kasper Hogh?
But it is likely Celtic target Kasper Hogh will not be a player coming to Parkhead after Bodo/Glimt slapped a huge transfer fee on their star striker.
Bodo/Glimt want £10m for Kasper Hogh as Celtic watch on
We told how Celtic should have made a move for Hogh before Bodo/Glimt beat Man City in the Champions League last month.
At that point, Norwich City were reportedly close to signing the Danish forward but it looks like the Norwegian champions are looking to fend off all interest in Hogh as journalist Pete O’Rourke shares the huge price-tag that’s now slapped on his head.
O’Rourke said on X, “Bodo/Glimt have placed a £10m price tag on striker Kasper Høgh in a bid to price Norwich and Celtic out of a move for the player.”
If that’s the case, Celtic will almost certainly be out of the race to sign Hogh with the Bhoys looking at loan deals to bolster the squad.
What Bodo/Glimt say about Celtic’s interest in Kasper Hogh
Hogh is making his mark this season in the Champions League as the striker bagged three goals in UEFA’s elite competition to take Bodo/Glimt into the play-off round.
And as Celtic swirl around Hogh, here is what Bodo/Glimt’s managing director Frodo Thomassen said about interest in the striker.
Thomassen said, “We don’t have to sell anyone, but if the offer is good and the player would like to go, of course we will judge it and see.
“I think Kasper enjoys playing in Bodo, but we will see.
“Our focus right now is on [Atletico] Madrid. We never comment on links. We won’t focus on the day tomorrow.
“There are two big ways in football to earn money. One of them is performance on the pitch and one is to sell players.
“Kasper was the top scorer in the Europa League when we made a semi-final last spring but he is a really good footballer and a really good striker.
“But as a person he is quite special. A good team mate who carries good values and he is one of the players – when the culture is very important for the club you want the right people on the pitch and in the staff – it is essential, and Kasper is a leading star for that.”
