Celtic midfielder Arne Engels attracts interest from Premier League clubs
Summary

Arne Engels, a midfielder for Celtic, is being pursued by Premier League teams Fulham, Sunderland, and Nottingham Forest. After multiple bids over the winter transfer window, including a £25 million offer, Celtic reportedly is weighing its options, considering that Engels' contract runs until 2028. Despite previously rejecting offers, the board may be more inclined to sell given Engels' successful season with seven goals and eight assists in 46 matches. Discussions suggest that proceeds from any potential sale should be used to significantly upgrade the midfield rather than finding a direct replacement. Celtic's management is urged to act swiftly if a deal emerges before the summer transfer window closes.
