Gangwon FC have confirmed that their winger, Yang Hyun-jun is well on his way to Celtic Park. This comes after a report yesterday that stated a financial package had been agreed with his club which will cost the Hoops around £2.1 million and he will start making his way to Glasgow after their next match against FC Seoul today.

It comes after a few frustrating weeks for both the player and club as Yang was desperate to sign for the Scottish Premiership Champions but his club Gangwon were determined to keep him until the end of their domestic season, as they are currently embroiled in a relegation dog-fight in which they sit 11th out of 12 places.

However, it appears now that Celtic will get their man after some patient and very protracted negotiations with the South Korean’s employers. Voted Young Player of the Year in his homeland, the winger has bags of potential and at just 21-years-old, Brendan Rodgers will have the opportunity to turn him into a top-class operator.

Exciting times lie ahead!

UPDATE: Gangwon FC have announced that winger Hyun-jun Yang will join Celtic.

He will say his goodbyes after today’s game against FC Seoul. https://t.co/g5lMcS0MSj pic.twitter.com/cUBYA4O4j6
