Celtic are reported to have agreed a £2.24m fee with Valerenga to sign Odin Thiago Holm.
A report from Norway claims that the midfielder has a medical booked in Glasgow to complete the move.
With Celtic currently without a manager any deal would appear to be driven by the club’s recruitment team.
Holm seems to be a traditional all-in midfielder, not nailed down to a holding or attacking role.
Nettavisen reports:
Valerenga completely agree with Celtic about Thiago Holm
On Monday, Nettavisen could reveal that Celtic had submitted a bid for Odin Thiago Holm . The Scottish big club has been in negotiations with Valerenga about the final details which were agreed upon this week.
VIF has secured a transfer fee of over NOK 30 million, as well as good resale percentages.
Thiago Holm will travel to Scotland to complete the medical examination and sign the contract when this is passed after he has finished his holiday.
The 20-year-old is this week in Spain, but he is expected in Glasgow after this to finalize the transfer. Thiago Holm has played his last match for Vålerenga according to the plan.
Celtic are currently well stocked for midfielders but Aaron Mooy and David Turnbull are both out of contract next summer with no official word of converting Tomoki Iwata’s loan move into a permanent deal.
Holm has played 10 league matches this season for Valerenga with their season starting in April.

Invest £2.2M, see how he progresses, sell him on for a profit!
That is how Lawwell earns his commission. He is like an engine room subsiduary operating within the football Club, with the sole intention of turning in a profit.
e.g. Paddy Klimala, Lewis Morganand Marian Shved.
Lol I see Mark Pirie from the daily sevco has left Celtic without a name and without a chance in the champions league and we don’t even know who is in our group as yet,what an absolute FUD.
I don’t know how you can face buying or even reading that rag that I wouldn’t insult covering the vomit on the ferries with Scud –
But Ta for the heads up anyway that they still utterly detest Celtic and our supporters !
Newspaper Cemetery for it soon hopefully / surely ! ?
I read it for a laugh as each so called journalist at that bog roll of a newspaper try to compete with each other to see who can be the next STUNTMAN for big zombie.
