Celtic Close to Signing Joel van den Berg Amidst Transfer Competition

Celtic is reportedly on the verge of signing Joel van den Berg from PSV Eindhoven, as discussions are underway in the Netherlands. The 19-year-old midfielder has not yet established himself as a first-team player at PSV, making a transfer more likely.

Van den Berg was recently withdrawn from a match with PSV's second team, indicating a potential move. Meanwhile, Celtic is also pursuing Niko Sigur, although they face competition from Genk and Toulouse for the 22-year-old midfielder.

Additionally, Celtic's bid for Ognjen Ugresic was rejected by Partizan Belgrade, who had committed to selling the player to PAOK for a lower fee. Celtic is also set to miss out on Ermin Mahmic, who is reportedly transferring to Corum in Turkey.
