Nicolas Kuhn continues to be linked with a move away from Celtic this summer. The German winger arrived in early 2024 and has only spent a year and a half at Parkhead. But during that period of time, he has improved his game and caught the eye of plenty of teams around Europe. There is believed to be interest from the Premier League but rumours suggest that his former team, RB Leipzig, are preparing an offer as well.
That leaves Celtic in a difficult spot. Kuhn was an integral part of Brendan Rodgers' team last season, even though his form might have dipped in the second half of the season.
So, parting ways with him would not be ideal. That being said, high-profile exits are the norm of life at Celtic. And if the player himself wants to leave, the club do not stand in their way.
Amid all this, there is another update on the situation. As reported by Football Insider, Celtic have put up a new asking transfer fee of £15-20 million for Kuhn this summer.
Celtic fans left stunned by club's new Nicolas Kuhn asking price
It is safe to say that most Celtic fans would not be pleased if £15 million is all that Celtic could get out of Kuhn's exit. This is a player who was carrying the team at one point last season and scored against Bayern Munich and RB Leipzig in the Champions League.
Surely, Celtic could be looking for a much higher figure than £15 million to say goodbye to someone like Kuhn. One can only hope that the report is not accurate.
Let's see what the future holds for Kuhn. The best-case scenario would be him staying at Celtic for at least one more season and improving his game further under Rodgers.
