Bodo/Glimt in transfer turmoil as Celtic Europa Conference League foes face another high profile exit

Bodo/Glimt have been rocked by ANOTHER looming transfer since drawing Celtic in the Europa Conference League.

The Norwegian champions were on a high after clinching a second successive league title when they drew Ange Postecoglou's side earlier this month.

The play-off round match is sure to be a special occasion with Kjetil Knutsen's 6-1 demolition of Jose Mourinho's Roma a prime example of his devastating attacking style.

But regardless of the strides made in Europe he's been unable to stem the tide of players wanting to move on upon the conclusion of their season.

Patrick Berg and Erik Botheim both left the club with midfielder Berg joining RC Lens while Botheim opted for a switch to Russia's FK Krasnodar.

Now striker Ola Solbakken has intimated he's ready to fly the nest - and ideally wants the deal done ASAP.

Speaking to Norway's Tronderbladet, he said: "We have decided that it is not relevant to extend with Bodo/Glimt.

"We have informed the club about this.

"Now they have two windows to sell me on. Either this winter or in the summer.

"If not, I will go for free after next season.”

Bodo/Glimt travel to Glasgow to face Celtic on February 17 before a return leg in the Arctic Circle on February 24.
