Transfer News: Kyogo sparks transfer civil war as Celtic ‘battle’ in £8.4m successor race while path to Moro deal becomes clear

Celtic’s Transfer Window Heats Up Amid Kyogo Speculation

The transfer window is heating up at Celtic Park, with the future of Kyogo Furuhashi dominating the headlines. The Japanese international has been linked with a move to Stade Rennes, with the French club reportedly willing to splash £10m to bring him to Ligue 1.

However, Rennes’ sporting director, Frederic Massara, has attempted to play down speculation surrounding a row between him and manager Jorge Sampaoli over the club’s transfer strategy. Massara insisted that the staff is working well together and that the club is focused on strengthening the team.

“We will have time to assess it, don’t worry,” Massara said. “The club supports us, the owner supports us and showed it during this winter transfer window where we have already brought in big players who can help us get back on track.”

Celtic’s Potential Replacements for Kyogo

Should Kyogo leave Celtic this month, the club has already identified potential replacements. Brondby’s Mathias Kvistgaarden is one of the frontrunners to replace the Japanese international, with the Danish club demanding a minimum of £8.4m to sell in the winter window.

RB Leipzig and Eintracht Frankfurt are also interested in signing Kvistgaarden, but Celtic is reportedly in the “battle” for a deal. The 22-year-old has been in impressive form for Brondby, and Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is keen to bring him to Glasgow.

Winger Raul Moro is also on Celtic’s radar, with the club weighing up a move for the £8.5million-rated winger. Real Valladolid boss Paulo Pezzolano was coy over Moro’s future ahead of Friday night’s clash with Espanyol.

“It’s not all my business,” Pezzolano said. “Based on the market we try to make the best decisions for the club. The club is committed, which is what I asked for. We want a renewed, improved team that will play at full speed for the rest of the season.”

Celtic’s Transfer Priorities

Celtic’s transfer priorities are clear, with the club keen to strengthen its attacking options. Kyogo’s potential departure has dominated the headlines, but the club is working hard to bring in new talent.

Brendan Rodgers has already stated that he wants to bring in players who can improve the team, and Celtic’s scouting network is working overtime to identify potential targets. With the transfer window heating up, Celtic fans will be eagerly awaiting news of new signings.

The Future of Kyogo Furuhashi

Kyogo’s future remains uncertain, with Rennes reportedly willing to splash £10m to bring him to Ligue 1. However, Celtic is reluctant to sell its star striker, and the club will do everything in its power to keep him at Celtic Park.

The Japanese international has been in impressive form for Celtic, and his goalscoring ability would be difficult to replace. However, with Rennes’ interest in him, Kyogo’s head may be turned by the prospect of playing in Ligue 1.
