Celtic are pushing for an agreement to sign Kasper Hogh.
The Dane is Martin O’Neill’s primary target for the striker position, and his arrival has been necessitated by events over the last week.
First came the news that Kelechi Iheanacho won’t be staying at Celtic, before news in recent days revealed that Daizen Maeda is on the move to Ipswich Town.
With just over a week to go before the beginning of the Scottish Premiership season, the push for Hogh is ongoing.
This is starting to heat up 🔥🔥🔥 Kasper Høgh to Celtic. What do we think? 🍀🤔

Celtic pushing for £8 million Kasper Hogh
Norwegian outlet Campo report that Celtic are trying to get a deal agreed for Hogh, having chased him in the January window.
It’s said that the Hoops may not need to fork out £10 million, and a fee of around £8m could be enough.

Celtic’s January interest in Hogh coincided with his rapid increase in profile in January as he made his mark on elite European football.
He finished as the second-top goalscorer in last year’s Eliteserien, also racking up seven Europa League goals on Bodo’s incredible run to the 2024-25 semi-final.
Last season, he managed five in the Champions League proper, netting against Inter Milan, Atletico Madrid and hitting a brace against Manchester City.
His heroics against Inter contributed to the biggest giant-killing of the competition, as the 2025 finalists were eliminated by Kjetil Knutsen’s side.
At 6 ft 1 in tall, Hogh ranks 35th for top speed in the Champions League this season, demonstrating an impressive double threat for pace and power.
Two extremely impressive European runs back-to-back will have done Bodo no harm financially, and they won’t be pressured to sell on the cheap.
