Celtic are reportedly looking at bringing in Swedish attacker Oskar Fallenius as they plan for next season. The 23-year-old plays for Djurgårdens IF and has impressed scouts with his skill, movement, and ability to play in many positions. [FotbollDirekt]
Fallenius mostly plays as a right winger but can also line up on the left wing, behind the striker, as a centre forward, or even on the left side of midfield. His flexibility makes him a useful option for any team. Celtic are keeping a close eye on him as they aim to strengthen their squad, with Rangers also said to be interested.
The Swedish winger has played over 150 games in his career, scoring 34 goals and providing 20 assists. He’s played for clubs like Brøndby in Denmark and IK Start in Norway before joining Djurgården in 2023. His time in different leagues has helped him grow and improve as a player.
Djurgården paid just over £1.5 million to sign him last year. His current contract runs until 2026, but there are signs that the club could be ready to sell him if a good offer comes in. Fallenius has become a key player for Djurgården, and they would likely want a strong fee before letting him go.
Celtic are always looking for new attacking talent, especially players who can cover more than one role. With a number of first-team players expected to leave this summer and more games to play across the league and Europe, Brendan Rodgers wants more options up front. Fallenius could be a smart signing, giving Celtic something different in attack.
This move would match Celtic’s recent signings—young, flexible players with room to improve. Fallenius fits that mould perfectly. He’s got experience but is still young enough to grow in Glasgow.
No bid has been made yet, but things could move quickly if Celtic decide to act. The transfer window is opening soon, and Celtic want to be ready to move fast when the right players become available.
If Fallenius does join, he would bring pace, creativity, and depth to the forward line. Fans will be watching closely to see if Celtic take this interest further in the coming weeks.
