Celtic have been busy, as expected, with the start of the summer transfer window. The club have already gotten a few deals over the line, with the most notable of them being the return of Kieran Tierney. On the other hand, some are believed to be pretty close, both in terms of arrivals and departures.

It is believed that everything has been agreed between Celtic, Benjamin Nygren and FC Nordsjaelland. That move could only be a matter of time. The same thing can be said about Callum Osmand as well.

On the other hand, in terms of exits, it looks like Nicolas Kuhn is edging towards the door much sooner than anybody could have anticipated. We might not be in for a long-drawn saga over the German winger's future.

As reported by The Scottish Sun, RB Leipzig are ready to step up their pursuit of Kuhn, now that they are ready to unveil a new manager, which is going to be Ole Werner. Talks between the two clubs have been progressing. Also, Newcastle United are weighing up a potential swoop but they will need to act fast if they want to sign the Celtic winger as the Bundesliga club are wasting no time.

Kuhn faced a ton of criticism in the last few months of the 24/25 campaign. But one cannot overlook his importance to this team. He had 36 goal contributions after all.

If Kuhn does end up leaving Celtic, which is looking more and more likely with every passing day, they will need to bring in a replacement. The Hoops have been linked with a few wingers lately.

So, let's see how things play out over the coming weeks and months. It does look like the Kuhn saga could be over soon.
