Celtic are advancing discussions with Anderlecht over a potential move for striker Kasper Dolberg, with journalist Anthony Joseph reporting that negotiations are now in motion.
Earlier this month, the Hoops were reportedly quoted a fee of around £10 million for the Danish forward. That figure initially looked too high, but Anderlecht have softened their stance following a costly European exit.
The Belgian side were knocked out of the UEFA Conference League play-off by AEK Athens, a result that has significantly increased pressure on them to balance the books.
Dolberg, 27, still has two years remaining on his Anderlecht contract. His résumé includes spells at Ajax, Nice, Sevilla, and Hoffenheim before moving to Belgium last summer.
Known for his physical presence and finishing prowess, he represents a like-for-like replacement for Celtic’s outgoing striker Adam Idah.
Dolberg’s profile and availability make him a prime candidate as the clock ticks down to the transfer deadline.
Talks are set to continue over the coming days, with Celtic determined to conclude a deal swiftly before being drawn into late-window complications elsewhere.
Securing Dolberg would be a statement signing for the club, a signal that, even amid turnover, Rodgers is intent on arming his side with experience and firepower.
