Benjamin Nygren has wasted no time in taking to Instagram to share a message with Celtic fans following his arrival in Glasgow.
The Swedish forward, who sealed a £1.7m move from FC Nordsjaelland on a five-year deal, took to Instagram shortly after his signing was confirmed to share a message with the Hoops support.
Posting photos from throughout the day, he wrote in the caption:“So happy to have joined this amazing and legendary club @celticfc. Can’t wait to start this new chapter and play in front of the amazing fans! 🍀”

His excitement comes as Celtic prepare for a busy summer schedule, with Nygren likely to be involved in several pre-season friendlies. The 23-year-old brings attacking flair and Champions League experience, having scored a hat-trick in the Conference League last season and hit 15 goals competitions for Nordsjaelland.
Brendan Rodgers praised the attacker’s mentality and work rate, while Nygren himself spoke of his competitive nature and desire to join a club with a winning culture. His message to fans caps off a strong first impression and adds to the growing excitement about what he can bring to the squad this season.
He looks like he can be the creative spark that Celtic were missing last season. Nygren looks like he could be a really good player for Celtic, and signing him for such a little fee makes the deal look even better.
