Celtic could sign “crazy” Idah alternative in biggest deal since Jota

Before the summer transfer window officially opens for business at the end of this month, Celtic might be looking to

add to their attacking options.

Hyeon-gyu Oh, one of the Hoops’ forwards, has been linked to a move away from Parkhead, so it looks like the team

may be ready to let him go.

Brendan Rodgers’ third choice for the South Korea international, who was apparently targeted by Belgian

powerhouse Genk, for £4 million.

The Hoops have now learned how much one of their striker targets would cost them this summer. Kyogo and Oh

leaving Parkhead would allow other players to enter and strengthen the attack.

Celtic discovers asking price for ultimate goal

The Daily Record has reported that Brondby has placed an eye-catching €10 million (£8.5 million) price tag on

center-forward Mathias Kvistgaarden. This information is attributed to Austrian source VICTAURI.

According to the outlet, RB Salzburg dispatched scouts to observe the young marksman in action during the 2023–

24 season since they are interested in recruiting him.

However, it claims that the £8.5 million valuation has turned the Austrian powerhouses away from a possible deal,

perhaps eliminating them from the competition for his signature.

According to The Daily Record, Celtic has shown interest in the Danish attacker throughout each of the previous two

transfer windows, indicating that they plan to pursue a long-term transfer of him. If they relocate for that amount, it

would be the club’s largest acquisition since Jota’s £6.5 million purchase.

They also cite an earlier story stating that in the summer of 2023, Brondby rejected a bid from the Hoops of more

than £4 million.

In order to secure the 22-year-old marksman and strengthen their attack in time for the upcoming season, the

Scottish powerhouses will now need to shell out much more than £4 million.

It is now unclear if the Bhoys are willing to bargain with Brondby to lower the asking price or if they are ready to pay

the £8.5 million asking price.

But if they can work out a deal with the Danish team to get him, Rodgers might find a fantastic replacement for

Adam Idah this summer.
