Agreement reached as Brondby 'close' to sale of Celtic-linked Kvistgaarden

Brondby are reportedly close to selling Celtic-linked attacker Mathias Kvistgaarden

The Parkhead club's interest in the forward has long been noted. 

Just off the back of scoring 17 goals in 29 Danish Superligaen appearances in the season gone by, Kvistgaarden's future has been a hot topic this summer. 

Now, he is close to joining Lens, claims Tipsbladet, who say that the French Ligue 1 side have reached an agreement with Brondby over a potential move.

Lens have yet to agree terms with Kvistgaarden himself, though, and Bundesliga side Eintracht Frankfurt are 'very keen'. Norwich City have also been credited with an interest. 

The 23-year-old's reported price tag is north of €13 million, a fee that would make him the most expensive player in Brondby's history. 

The club's sports director, Benjamin Schmedes, issued an update on Kvistgaarden's future last month: "It doesn't surprise me that there is great interest in him from many teams," he said. 

"But I can't say that he is close to being sold or that he is far from being sold either.

"That's because it is an ongoing process and the most important thing is that we are very transparent in our dialogue with each other."
