With the winter transfer window approaching, Premier League clubs Fulham and Brentford have shown serious interest in Celtic’s star winger Nicolas Kühn. Following a stellar start to the season, where the 24-year-old contributed 10 goals and 11 assists across all competitions, including the Champions League, Kühn has attracted attention since his £3 million arrival from Rapid Vienna last January.
Originally valued by Celtic at €10 million (£8.4 million), reports from *Kronen Zeitung* now suggest that the club has set a considerably higher price, reportedly discussing a €30 million (£24.8 million) fee. This would make Kühn Celtic’s most expensive departure, surpassing the record-breaking transfer of Matt O’Riley to Brighton last summer. The prospect of a major payday has reportedly led Celtic to consider potential replacements as interest in Kühn continues to rise.
Forward Mathias Kvistgaarden of Brondby has emerged as a top candidate, able to play both as a winger and a central striker. Danish publication *Tipsbladet* reports that Celtic scouts attended Brondby’s recent clash against FC Nordsjaelland and have been monitoring the 22-year-old over recent matches. Kvistgaarden’s versatility and skillset have reportedly drawn “very strong interest” from the Scottish champions.
As transfer speculation mounts, Celtic fans will be eagerly watching to see whether Kühn remains with the Premiership leaders or if the club cashes in on the talented winger in what could be a record-breaking deal.
