Celtic supporters are now on the verge of finally seeing Kasper Høgh pass his Celtic medical as reports suggest the Danish striker has successfully completed the final medical tests ahead of his move to Glasgow.
According to reports, Høgh underwent his medical in London before travelling north to complete the final stages of what is expected to become Celtic’s record transfer. Personal terms are believed to have been agreed, leaving the official announcement as the final hurdle.
Kasper Høgh Celtic Medical Completed
The Kasper Høgh Celtic medical is another major step towards the 25-year-old becoming the latest addition to Martin O’Neill’s squad.
A fee of around £11 million has been widely reported, making Høgh the most expensive signing in Celtic’s history if the deal is completed.
The striker arrives with an outstanding goalscoring reputation after excelling for Bodø/Glimt and will be expected to help fill the void left by Daizen Maeda’s departure.
Celtic Still Need More Signings
While supporters will be delighted to see Høgh arrive, one signing cannot erase the frustrations of the summer transfer window.
Several important areas of the squad still require strengthening and, with the Premiership campaign fast approaching, many supporters believe more business must be completed quickly.
Credit should be given for landing such an ambitious signing, but the recruitment drive cannot end here.
Høgh Could Change the Mood
A club-record transfer sends a powerful message and could lift the mood around Celtic Park.
If Høgh adapts quickly, he has the quality to become a major player for Celtic this season.
The supporters will now eagerly await official confirmation before attention turns to the next arrivals. Høgh may be the headline signing, but many believe further additions are still essential if Celtic are to compete strongly on every front.
