The summer transfer window has not even opened yet but some moves are already being confirmed officially. Of course, the Hoops have already announced that Scott Bain will be leaving the club. And they are not the only ones. Liverpool also recently put out the news that the club had agreed a deal to sign Jeremie Frimpong from Bayer Leverkusen.
There had been speculation about the move for quite some time now. It has been made official and Frimpong will be wearing the Liverpool jersey moving forward, marking a phenomenal rise for the youngster.
He will be replacing a Liverpool legend in the process, as Trent Alexander-Arnold is headed for Real Madrid. There is further good news for Celtic in this regard as well.
For a while, there have been rumours about Celtic receiving a significant sell-on fee for Frimpong's exit. Now, a very reliable source has confirmed the news and shed some light on how much the Hoops will get.
Sky Sports man confirms brilliant Celtic transfer rumour
As reported by Anthony Joseph, Celtic will be due around £5.5 million from the Frimpong transfer. They inserted a 30% of profit sell-on clause, when he moved to Bayer Leverkusen in 2021.
it goes without saying that that is a big figure for Celtic. And it could mean an extra transfer or two this summer. It remains to be seen how things play out in that regard.
Of course, Celtic will be looking to make additions to the squad. In fact, they have already agreed a couple of pre-contract deals, with Kieran Tierney and Ross Doohan set to make their return to their boyhood club. One would imagine that the club would be looking to spend much more with the Rangers takeover now also official. This could be an exciting window for the fans.
