The record-breaking fee is set to be splashed by the Scottish champions before the transfer deadline
Celtic are ready to spend the majority of their Matt O’Riley windfall on strengthening Brendan Rodgers’ squad for their title defence and Champions League assault.
The Hoops have made an opening offer of around £6million for the Belgian under-20 international but the German side want more. Celtic are expected to up their bid. The good news is that the Hoops know that Engels, 20, is keen on a move to Scotland and it has been reported that terms have already been agreed.
The Hoops will push again for the former Leeds United player after LAFC lost their League Cup final to Columbus Crew. Celtic have also opened talks with Lazio about a possible loan for their Danish winger Isaksen. Celtic are already well down the line in bringing in Valle on loan from Barcelona. The 20-year-old, who has signed a new deal with the Spanish giants, will move to Celtic on a season-long loan.
