Transfer Update: Celtic FC Signs Jhon Durán on a Three-and-a-Half-Year Deal

Celtic FC has completed the signing of Colombian forward Jhon Durán on a three-and-a-half-year contract, marking an exciting addition to their attacking options. The highly-rated 19-year-old arrives from MLS side Chicago Fire, where he has impressed with his pace, power, and clinical finishing in his relatively short stint.

Durán’s move to Celtic is expected to bolster the team’s attacking depth as they continue their pursuit of domestic and European glory. Known for his ability to create space and finish from difficult positions, Durán’s signing gives Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou a versatile forward option. The striker, who has been a standout in Major League Soccer, caught the eye of several European clubs with his performances, but it’s Celtic who have secured his services.

Speaking about the move, Durán expressed his excitement to join the Scottish champions, stating, “I’m thrilled to be here at Celtic. It’s an amazing club with a rich history, and I can’t wait to start playing in front of the incredible fans.”

Celtic FC will hope Durán’s arrival provides a further boost to their offensive line as they seek to defend their Premiership title and make an impact in European competitions. His blend of physicality and technical ability will likely make him an asset to the squad as he adapts to Scottish football.

Durán’s signing also demonstrates Celtic’s intent to strengthen their squad with young, promising talent, as they look to build for the future while continuing their dominance in Scotland. Fans will be eager to see what the Colombian forward can bring to the Celtic Park pitch.
