Bodo/Glimt’s Hogh to have Celtic medical within 24 hours
Celtic are close to signing Bodo/Glimt striker Kasper Hogh, with manager Martin O’Neill saying the Denmark international is expected to undergo a medical within 24 hours. The potential move would strengthen Celtic’s attack following Daizen Maeda’s sale to Ipswich Town and may ease pressure on the club after a quiet transfer window.
Hogh, 25, has been linked with Celtic for several months, and reports say the Scottish champions have agreed a club-record £11m fee with Bodo/Glimt. O’Neill stressed that the deal is not complete until it is signed, while noting Celtic have made only one summer signing so far: Colombian forward Camilo Duran, who has scored three goals in three pre-season matches.

Kasper Hogh is a 25-year-old Danish international striker who plays for Norwegian club Bodø/Glimt. Celtic, the Scottish champions, are in negotiations to sign him to strengthen their attack.
Celtic sold striker Daizen Maeda to Ipswich Town earlier in the transfer window. The Scottish club are reported to have agreed a fee of around £11 million with Bodø/Glimt, which would be a club-record transfer fee.
So far this summer, Celtic have signed only Colombian forward Camilo Duran. Hogh would be their second summer signing.
