Celtic have broken their transfer record to sign Denmark striker Kasper Hogh from Norwegian club Bodo/Glimt for a reported fee of £11 million. The 25-year-old has signed a four-year contract with an option for a further year, becoming the Scottish champions' second summer signing after Camilo Duran. Hogh scored 54 goals in 103 games for Bodo/Glimt, including five in last season's Champions League, and notably scored against Manchester City and Atletico Madrid in the competition. He made his Denmark senior debut in March and scored in a World Cup play-off final. The signing aims to ease fan pressure following the departure of Daizen Maeda to Ipswich Town. Hogh described Celtic as a 'really good match' and expressed readiness to contribute immediately with goals and defensive work.
