SHOCKING NEWS;Celtic finally announces new ownership few minutes ago due to..

Celtic are among the clubs interested in signing Ajax left back Owen Wijndal this summer, according to recent reports.

Brendan Rodgers’ side have won their opening two games of the 2024/25 Scottish Premiership season, beating both St Mirren and Hibernian earlier this month. They will be hoping to make it four league titles on the bounce at the end of the campaign, after making it three in a row last term.

With regard to transfers, Celtic have made a handful of new additions to the squad, including forward Adam Idah from Norwich and Paulo Bernardo from Benfica. Hyeon-gyu Oh and Sead Haksabanovic both departed on permanent deals earlier in the window.

Celtic have joined the race to sign Ajax left back Wijndal this transfer window, if recent reports are anything to go by. According to journalist Anthony Joseph, Celtic and Werder Bremen both hold an interest in the 24-year-old.

It has been claimed the Eredivisie club are open to offers for the defender, and initial enquiries have been made by both clubs. Celtic are hoping to reinforce their left back position this summer, and hope to provide greater competition for Greg Taylor. They have also been linked with a move for Liverpool youngster Owen Beck.

Wijndal is a product of AZ Alkmaar’s academy, and he made 143 senior appearances, which saw him described as “outstanding” prior to his move to Ajax in 2022. However, he has made just 32 appearances for the club, and he spent last season on loan with Belgian side Royal Antwerp.

He signed a five-year deal when he joined Ajax two years ago, meaning he has three years left on his contract which expires in 2027. Wijndal made his senior debut for the Dutch national team in 2020 under manager Frank de Boer, and he has since gone on to make 11 appearances in total so far.
