Celtic Contact Brøndby About Benjamin Tahirović Price and Deal
Celtic have contacted Brøndby about benjamin tahirović, asking for the price and the possibility of signing the 23-year-old midfielder. The move puts an early marker on Celtic's summer business under Martin O'Neill, with the club now testing the cost of a player they really want.
Celtic and Brøndby
Gianluca Di Marzio said Celtic have asked Brøndby for necessary information on Tahirović, including his price. He also said Celtic really want him and are still trying to sign him.
That is the clearest sign yet that Celtic are moving from interest to contact. Brøndby now know the level of attention around a player who arrived there last year after leaving Ajax.
Tahirović at 23
Tahirović is a Swedish-born Bosnian midfielder who came through AS Roma and Ajax before moving to Brøndby last year. He made 32 appearances across all competitions last season and won a World Cup call-up after it.
He is described as an out-and-out midfielder who will get his hands dirty defensively, which gives Celtic a profile rather than just a name. Bosnia begin their World Cup campaign against hosts Canada on Friday, so his schedule now runs through international duty as Celtic continue their push.
For Celtic, the immediate next step is straightforward: decide whether Brøndby’s asking price fits the recruitment plan. For Tahirović, the interest arrives as his club season, international call-up and summer market value all converge at once.
