Shin Yamada Heads to Belgium as Celtic Loan Deal Takes Shape

By Alasdair Munn 15 July, 2026 No Comments

Celtic have sent Shin Yamada to OH Leuven for the season – a move that makes sense for player and club alike as the window takes shape.

Celtic confirmed on Tuesday evening that Shin Yamada has joined OH Leuven on a season-long loan. The announcement came directly via the club’s official channels.

From here, the focus shifts to what Yamada can achieve in Belgium over the course of the loan.

For Yamada personally, this is an opportunity to take on more game time and build momentum. We wish him well and hope he goes over there and absolutely thrives.
