Celtic FC pursues PSV midfielder Joël van den Berg

Celtic FC is reportedly pursuing PSV Eindhoven midfielder Joël van den Berg as the transfer window approaches its deadline. A member of the Celtic delegation is currently in Eindhoven to discuss a potential transfer for the 19-year-old Netherlands Under-19 international. While Van den Berg has been omitted from the Jong PSV squad for a recent fixture, suggesting a move may be imminent, reports indicate that Celtic has not yet submitted a formal bid.

In a separate development, long-linked target Ermin Mahmić appears unlikely to join the club. The Bosnia and Herzegovina international is reportedly set to move from Slovan Liberec to the Turkish Super Lig side Çorum in a deal valued at €5 million. The transfer is expected to be finalized following a medical, with a contract running until 2030.
