Celtic have agreed a loan deal for Freiburg striker Junior Adamu, according to Sky Sports News journalist Anthony Joseph.
The Hoops are reportedly nearing their third signing of the January transfer window, with discussions ongoing regarding a potential option-to-buy clause.
Adamu is already in the UK and is due to undergo a medical on transfer deadline day, after Celtic beat several clubs in the race for his signature.
The Austria international has scored twice in 18 appearances for Freiburg this season, including one goal in the Europa League.
Celtic Agree Loan Deal for Junior Adamu
According to Joseph, Celtic are looking to include an option to make Adamu’s loan move permanent and are still in ongoing discussions with Freiburg.
Adamu joined Freiburg in 2023 from Austrian side Red Bull Salzburg and has found the back of the net seven times in 67 appearances during his time in Germany.
The 24-year-old has won nine caps for Austria to date, with his latest appearance coming in November 2024.
Celtic have completed the signings of right-back Julian Araujo and striker Tomas Cvancara earlier in the window, and are anticipated to welcome multiple new players ahead of Monday’s transfer deadline.
Lorient winger Joel Mvuka’s arrival is expected to follow, with the forward already undergoing his medical in London ahead of a £3m move.
