Celtic make Denmark striker Hogh their record signing

Published 25 July 2026 Updated 10 minutes ago Denmark striker Kasper Hogh says Celtic are a "really good match" for him after becoming the club's record signing. The 25-year-old has joined for a reported club-record fee of £11m from Bodo/Glimt and becomes the Scottish champions' second summer recruit, following the arrival of Camilo Duran. Hogh - who scored 54 goals in 103 games for Norwegians Bodo/Glimt, five of which were in last season's Champions League - has penned a four-year deal with the option of a further year. The Dane's big-money arrival will ease some of the fan pressure on Celtic's board after Japan forward Daizen Maeda's exit to Ipswich Town. "I'm so happy," Kogh told Celtic TV. "When I came into the room and saw the shirt, I was really excited. "The history of the club is so big. I spoke with some people and with my family about the club. "The feeling they had, and the feeling I had in my stomach, was that this was a really good match." On his playing style, Kogh added: "I like to be in the box and score goals, but I also want to help my team-mates defensively and work hard for the team. "I've trained throughout the summer and I've already played league games in Norway, so I feel ready. I just want to get started and be thrown into the fire." More to follow.
