Celtic sign Danish striker Hogh in record £11m deal

Celtic have completed the club‑record signing of Danish international Kasper Hogh, who arrives from Bodo/Glimt on a four‑year contract with an option for a further season. The £11 million fee marks the Scottish champions’ biggest transfer investment, rewarding Hogh’s impressive spell in Norway, where he scored 53 goals in 102 appearances across domestic and European competitions. The 25‑year‑old becomes Celtic’s second summer addition and will wear the number nine shirt as Martin O’Neill prepares his squad for the Premiership opener against Dundee United and the upcoming Champions League qualifier.

Speaking to the club website, Hogh said he felt an immediate connection with Celtic’s history and atmosphere, describing the move as “a really good match.” He promised hard work, defensive contribution and a striker’s instinct in the box, adding that he is already match‑ready after playing in Norway’s league. His arrival follows Daizen Maeda’s transfer to Premier League newcomers Ipswich Town.
