Keita Kosugi Signs with Celtic FC in Landmark Transfer Deal
Glasgow, Scotland – June 6, 2025
Celtic Football Club has officially announced the signing of Japanese midfielder Keita Kosugi, marking a significant move in their summer transfer strategy. The 22-year-old rising star joins the Scottish giants from his former club in the J.League, where he made headlines for his dynamic playmaking and tactical intelligence.
In a photo released by the club earlier today, Kosugi is seen proudly wearing the iconic green and white hoops while holding his signed contract, confirming the multi-year deal. The transfer is widely viewed as a strategic step by Celtic to strengthen their midfield and further expand their influence in the Asian football market.
“It’s a dream come true to join a club with such rich history and passionate supporters,” Kosugi said during his unveiling. “I’m ready to give everything for the badge and make an impact in European football.”
Celtic’s manager expressed high hopes for the young talent, noting that Kosugi’s versatility and work ethic make him an ideal fit for the club’s attacking system.
The deal is expected to energize Celtic’s fan base and elevate the club’s profile in Japan, continuing the legacy of successful Asian signings at Parkhead.
Kosugi will join the first team for pre-season training next week as preparations begin for the upcoming UEFA Champions League qualifiers.
