Overview
- Multiple outlets report that SC Paderborn and Celtic have agreed terms for a transfer of midfielder Mika Baur, with the deal described as all but complete.
- Paderborn has reportedly freed Baur from training and the player is said to be travelling to Glasgow with advisors to finalise paperwork.
- The fee is reported at about €8 million including bonuses and Baur is expected to sign a contract running until 2031.
- The move remains subject to a medical examination and official confirmation from the clubs before it is finalised.
- If the transfer goes through, Paderborn would record its biggest-ever sale and Schalke’s earlier interest collapsed because Celtic’s sporting offer and finances outmatched them, changing how Paderborn can reinvest its squad funds.
