Celtic Sign Junior Adamu on Loan From Freiburg With Reported Option to Buy

The Austria striker joins to bolster Celtic’s attack during a tight title race.

Overview

  • Celtic confirmed the 24-year-old’s season-long move, subject to international clearance, after he completed medical checks in Glasgow.
  • Manager Martin O’Neill hailed the forward’s top-flight and European experience, while Adamu said he is “hungry for goals” and eager to help win trophies.
  • Most outlets state the loan includes a summer purchase option, though at least one report says no such clause has been agreed.
  • Freiburg sporting director Klemens Hartenbach said Adamu’s recent minutes were unsatisfactory for club and player and expressed hope the switch “brings a new dynamic.”
  • Celtic also secured deadline-day loans for winger Joel Mvuka and defender Benjamin Arthur as part of a broader push to add depth.
