Celtic player not given squad number as new signings' numbers released

Celtic have released their official squad numbers list - with one player noticeable by his absence.

The Parkhead club confirmed their players' numbers for the upcoming 2026/27 season in an update on the Celtic App ahead of tonight's opener against Dundee.

Marquee £11 million striker signing Kasper Hogh has been handed the number nine shirt, while fellow new arrival Camilo Duran gets 11.

However, another forward in Johnny Kenny hasn't been featured on the list at all.

Celtic vs Dundee LIVE match updates: Team news, transfer latest & more Gvidas Gineitis' agent speaks on Celtic links and player's thoughts on interest


The 23-year-old found himself in the team plenty in the early parts of last season but fell down the pecking order and was loaned out to Bolton Wanderers in January, scoring six goals to help them earn promotion to the English Championship.

The Trotters are believed to be interested in making that move permanent before the transfer window closes.

That could be made easier by the fact he doesn't appear to have been given a squad number by Celtic.

Kenny isn't in the squad to face Dundee this evening either, and hasn't featured in pre-season. The Celtic Way understands that is down to an injury he has been carrying.
