Move along to sunny Glasgow, that's where FC Augsburg's midfielder Arne Engels might be headed, according to whispers in the football world. The Scottish Champions League contender Celtic Glasgow is haggling with the German side for Engels, and if the deal goes down, it's looking like a hefty 13 million euros profit for FC Augsburg – not too shabby, eh?
Engels hopped onto FC Augsburg's turf back in January 2023 from Club Brugge's youth squad for a measly 100,000 euros. But that's old news now; fads come and go, and so do players. Now, so long story short, he's been trailing Edinburgh, and if the rumors are true, he'll be packing his kilt (or tartan trousers) soon.
Still, the deal isn't inked yet, says the club rep. Apparently, they're swapping documents and all that jazz. One thing's for sure, though – if it does happen on a Sunday, it'll give Celtic a solid midfielder and FC Augsburg a heck of a pocket full of dough.
Now, for those who care to know, Arne's been shining in the Bundesliga, goes without saying. He's clocked 51 games and bagged three goals. Impressive, right? But what's really got folks talking is his potential move to the Scottish giants. Word on the street is, he's acing it in Glasgow, settling like a bloody fish in water. Given his flair and brilliant technique, it's no shocker Celtic's interested.
So, keep your eyes peeled, folks. Here's to hoping we see Arne Engels in a Celtic jersey soon!
