Celtic will only consider big-money bids for Nicolas Kuhn, that too in the summer, as they are uninterested in selling him in January.
According to Football Insider, Celtic will not sell Nicolas Kuhn cheaply, as they are likely to demand a significant fee to let go of the winger. There is modest Premier League interest ahead of the January transfer window, with Fulham keen, although the Hoops are not even considering a winter sale.
Nicolas Kuhn has made a significant contribution to Celtic since his move from Rapid Vienna in January of this year. The Scottish giants paid a nominal fee of around €3.5 million, as his current performances have already made that price point feel like a bargain.
In any case, there are suggestions that the 24-year-old German winger’s time at Celtic could be shortlived, as some Premier League sides are already showing an interest ahead of the January transfer window. Kuhn has 10 goals and 11 assists in 17 games across all competitions, which makes him one of the most in-form attackers on the planet.
In any case, Celtic are not about to start demanding a £100 million fee for the 24-year-old German winger, although they are keen to demand a significant one. One might point at the idea of fetching more than their record sales, which at this time is Matt O’Riley to Brighton, while Arsenal’s purchase of Kieran Tierney is very close to £25 million the Seagulls paid in the summer.
Hence, Celtic are only in the mood to consider exceptional offers, which could potentially see them make yet another record sale. However, the Hoops are not eager to even consider a January sale, as the player remains a vital part of Brendan Rodgers’s plans for the season, although they will open their doors ahead of the summer. Some sides are interested, including Crystal Palace and Fulham, who are in the market for a new winger.
Premier League intersted in Nicolas Kuhn
Fulham are interested in a move for Nicolas Kuhn as Marco Silva eyes a new winger to bolster his attacking options. They might have to find a permanent solution for the impressive Reiss Nelson, although Arsenal may look to either keep him or charge a huge fee. Hence, the 24-year-old German winger is viewed as a long-term option in Silva’s system, which continues to demand a top-draw left-footer from the right side.
Crystal Palace are also eager on Kuhn. They have definitely missed a wide presence in the final third since Michael Olise’s departure in the summer. The Celtic attacker could be an interesting investment opportunity for Palace to consider, although Celtic will prevent any sort of move in the January window.
