Striker on the Brink of Transfer
Celtic’s South Korean forward Oh Hyeon-Gyu is on the verge of a switch to Belgian side KRC Genk, having flown out to complete a medical. The move comes after terms were agreed between the two clubs, allowing Oh to depart Scotland for Belgium.
Swift Exit from Celtic Park
Despite only joining Celtic in January 2023 on a five-year contract, Oh is poised to exit the Glasgow outfit. With 47 appearances and 12 goals to his name for the Hoops, the club has decided to move on from the South Korean international after a short stint.
Competition for Places
Brendan Rodgers, Celtic’s manager, has often preferred other options in attack, limiting Oh’s time on the pitch primarily to substitute appearances. Adam Idah’s successful loan spell in the latter half of the season has also impacted Oh’s game time, contributing to Celtic’s decision to transfer him.
Potential and Past Performance
Oh remains a promising talent, having demonstrated his goal-scoring capabilities during his time with Suwon Bluewings and on the international stage with South Korea. His career so far includes 14 goals in 53 appearances for Suwon and 11 international caps.
Celtic’s Forward Planning
The move to offload Oh may be part of a broader strategy, with Celtic reportedly interested in converting Adam Idah’s loan move into a permanent deal after his impressive performance last season.
