Celtic to bank 'significant' windfall from Ben Doak's £25m transfer

Celtic are reportedly set to bank a 'significant' transfer windfall from Ben Doak's move to Bournemouth.

The Premier League club are on the verge of sealing a £25m agreement with Liverpool for the Scotland star.

The 19-year-old has been allowed to depart Anfield this summer, after the attacker made just 10 appearances in three years since joining from the Hoops.

It's said that Liverpool will receive £20m up front, with a further £5m paid in add-ons by Bournemouth.

And the Scottish Sun reports that a seven-figure sum will be due to Celtic by Liverpool.

The report states that Doak will sign a five-year contract on the south coast, running until the summer of 2030.

As part of the deal to sell Doak to Liverpool in 2022 for £600,000, Celtic included a sell-on clause.

And this will see their percentage of this sale amount to seven figures.

Doak - who spent last season on loan in the Championship with Middlesbrough - will now hope to continue his development at the highest level.

He's made six Scotland appearances after being handed his international debut by Steve Clarke last year.
