Celtic have completed the signing of South Korean attacker Yang Hyun-jun from Gangwon, subject to international clearance.

The 21-year-old has put pen to paper on a five-year contract until 2028 and moves to Parkhead for a fee believed to be in the region of £2m.

Yang becomes Brendan Rodgers's third signing of the summer transfer window following the arrivals of attacker Marco Tilio from Melbourne City and midfielder Odin Thiago Holm from Valerenga Fotball.

Speaking to Celtic's official website on his arrival in Glasgow, Yang said: "I'm very pleased to come to Celtic and I'm looking forward to meeting my new teammates and to begin training with them.

"This is a move that I wanted to make and so it is great to be here in Scotland now as a Celtic player.

"I have spoken to Oh [Hyeon-gyu] who has already told me great things about the club and its supporters, so I can't wait to meet them and play in front of them."

Rodgers added: "We're delighted to bring Yang to the club and I'm sure he's going to be another great addition to the squad.

"He's a player that we've looked at closely and who we think will further enhance our attacking options which, of course, already include his fellow countryman Oh.

"He's an exciting player who was the Young Player of the Year in South Korea last season, which is an indication of his quality, and I'm sure he'll be looking forward to having a big impact at the club.

"It's also clear that he was very keen to make this move to Celtic so I know he'll be delighted that everything has now been agreed and we're really looking forward to working with him."

Yang made his professional debut with Gangwon in 2021 and went on to make 71 appearances in all competitions, scoring nine goals and registering five assists.

The versatile attacker, who can operate across the front three or as an advanced midfielder, leaves Gangwon after winning the K League Young Player of the Year award last season.

Yang could make his competitive debut for Celtic when they begin the defence of their Scottish Premiership title at home against Ross County on August 5. body check tags ::
