Celtic have completed the signing of Norwegian playmaker Odin Thiago Holm on a five-year deal.
Talks have been ongoing with Valerenga since before Brendan Rodgers returned to the club and the Irishman greenlit the signing upon his arrival. That gave Celtic the all-clear to push ahead and it was reported on Wednesday that a medical was underway after a £2.6m deal was agreed earlier this month.
Now the 20-year-old has officially sealed his move to Celtic Park and will link up with the squad as the first official signing of Rodgers' second spell. He'll join for pre-season and could feature in their pre-season tour of Japan which kicks off on July 19. Brendan Rodgers said: "We are delighted to bring Odin to the club and to secure his signing so early in the window. He is a player who has been in the club’s scouting and recruitment system for some time.
"I have looked at him closely and believe he is someone who can make a big impact at the club. I have spent time already with Odin, he is an ambitious, exciting young player and I know he is delighted to be joining us.' He is a great addition to the quality squad we already have and we really look forward to working with him.”
