Bodø/Glimt attempt to price Celtic out of move for Kasper Høgh

Celtic have been told that they will need to pay £10m to land Kasper Høgh. The Danish star scored against Manchester City and Atletico Madrid, making it four goals and two assists in Europe’s elite competition. Martin O’Neill’s Celtic made an enquiry about the 25-year-old.

According to transfer journalist Pete O’Rourke, the Norwegian outfit have now set their asking price for Høgh in a bid to price Celtic and Norwich out of a move.

You would be surprised to see Høgh swapping the Norwegian side with their UEFA Champions League Playoff coming up. However, Celtic are in the market for quality as they look to compete in the Europa League as well as retaining the title again.

Norwich appear to have moved on from Høgh with Philippe Clement’s City reportedly completing a £3.4m deal for Randers attacker Mohamed Toure, with the Australian international set to travel to England for a medical.

Celtic have already signed Tomas Cvancara from Borussia Monchengladbach in a loan-to-buy deal but it remains to be seen whether there will be further arrivals up front. The Scottish Champions have been linked with further move

  1. £1M would out price Celtic.
    The club have got to be the worse team in Scotland for getting transfers over the line.
    Run by a bunch of obnoxious clowns, no decent player wants to come to us, and I don’t blame them.

      Hard to disagree. They dance around making ‘enquiries’ looking busy with no intention of pulling the trigger on anything other than a low ball punt.

    The 31st of January and we are still working hard at failing to put in a bid that a club cannot turn down for a player who could help win us the league. A player that the new manager in the summer would be pleased to have in the squad. Seriously, we’re working hard is worn out and it’s time for the clubs owners to show a bit of ambition. The model of buying cheap and selling for big money is positive but it needs to be be supplemented with buying in quality players and not endless development players in quantity.

  3. We have to be realistic. Itsdifficult to buy in January. Secondly, the SPL is not a great selling point. Everyone t tne club will be trying like mad to get players in. The selling club will play hardball for sure. Itsnot easy.

    So many supportersshout about the 70 million quid we have. Face it now, for God’s sake. 70 million in football is peanuts. Players in England get bought and sold for that much, as well as the buying clubs paying massive wages. At least double the wage Celtic pay their top earner.

    The Board screwed up in the summer, big time. That complete arrogant prat, Rodgers, did not help at all.

    The club is in a bad place right now. They are trying to fix things, so give them a chance. Hail Celtic
