That game only amplified interest in the Dane, and now Celtic are understood to be among the clubs chasing him.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Celtic have entered the race over a late-window deal for Bodo\/Glimt striker Kasper Hogh. Norwich are also chasing the forward who scored twice against Manchester City in the Champions League last week. <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/CelticFC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">#CelticFC<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/NCFC?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">#NCFC<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Bodo?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">#Bodo<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/cosPaDLGgw\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/cosPaDLGgw<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Pete O\u2019Rourke (@SportsPeteO) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SportsPeteO\/status\/2016055981625467165?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">January 27, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"717\" data-end=\"1137\">The striker enjoyed an excellent season last term in Norway, finishing with 17 goals and six assists in the Eliteserien and also registering an impressive seven goals in 14 Europa League matches. Bodo\/Glimt enjoyed a remarkable run in European competition last season, reaching the Europa League semi\u2011finals before eventually being knocked out by Tottenham Hotspur, then managed by Ange <a data-autolink-id=\"12\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/celtsarehere.com\/ange-postecoglou-glasgow-celtic-2\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Postecoglou<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1139\" data-end=\"1405\">H\u00f8gh\u2019s blend of goalscoring instinct, physicality and experience in European competition has made him an attractive target.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1407\" data-end=\"1761\">Norwich, currently in the Championship and managed by Philippe Clement, is also keen on H\u00f8gh and has been actively pursuing the transfer. How the situation plays out in the next few days will depend on negotiations between the clubs and, crucially, whether Celtic feel they can get a deal done on terms that suit them, whether that\u2019s a loan with an option to buy or a permanent move.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1763\" data-end=\"2131\">With just days remaining in the window, this could be one of the final opportunities for Celtic to add the kind of attacking reinforcements the squad has desperately needed. H\u00f8gh is one of the most eye\u2011catching names linked in this late stage, and if Celtic can get it over the line, it would be a significant statement of intent from the board and Martin O\u2019Neill.<\/p>\n<p>    <a href=\"https:\/\/teesfortims.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/CELTIC-FC-VALENTINES-MERCHANDISE-CARD.png\" alt=\"Tees for Tims\" width=\"100%\"\/><br \/>\n    <\/a><\/p>\n<p>    <script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Celtic have reportedly entered the race to sign Bodo\/Glimt striker Kasper H\u00f8gh in a late\u2011window push to add&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":432860,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[403,99],"class_list":["post-432859","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/432859","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=432859"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/432859\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/432860"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=432859"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=432859"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=432859"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
