Celtic Considering a Move For Ivorian Midfielder

The January transfer window is fast approaching, and Celtic are unsurprisingly getting linked with a growing number of players. The latest is Romeo Amane.

The 20-year-old currently plays his football with Hacken in Sweden’s top flight.

According to Football Scotland, Amane has been ‘watched closely’ by the Hoops and was fast-tracked up the shortlist after initial examination of his talents.

He scored three goals and assisted a further four in all competitions this year, and it is said that Hacken wants £3 million for the player who was nominated for the 2023 European Golden Boy award, along with Odin Holm.

A midfielder, Amane has made the majority of his appearances for the club he has been with since the beginning of 2022 in the ‘eight’ role. He played 34 times for Hacken in the 2023 season and made appearances in all of their Europa League group games.

Amane stands at 5″9 and is not the most imposing. As well as this, his age poses questions over whether he is the quality Brendan Rodgers is after in January.

The Irishman wants first-team-ready players to come in the door next month, and supporters want no more projects to be signed. It seems as though Amane would certainly come under that category.
