Overview

• Sky, via Transfermarkt, reports Celar is in Düsseldorf for a medical as a loan move nears, with a purchase option under discussion.
• If finalized, his market value of about €4 million would make him Fortuna’s most valuable player.
• Fortuna stepped up its search for a striker after Vincent Vermeij left, leaving Cedrik Itten as the squad’s only out-and-out No. 9.
• Celar thrived at Lugano but had limited impact at QPR and missed matches last season with a thigh injury.
• With the window closing on September 1, Fortuna have already added ten players and still target a defender, while Pogon Szczecin and Slovan Bratislava were also linked to Celar.
