Celtic Negotiations Continue for Egyptian Winger Haissem Hassan
Celtic Football Club is engaged in advanced talks with Spanish side Real Oviedo to sign 24‑year‑old Egyptian winger Haissem Hassan. Reports that a deal had already been finalized were disproved; the club confirmed no agreement is in place yet, though negotiations remain active as the transfer window nears its close.
Real Oviedo has turned down a French club's €7.5 million bid for Hassan, insisting on a minimum €12 million fee and retaining a 40 % sell‑on clause on any future sale. The winger, who is entering the final 12 months of his contract with Oviedo, attracted attention after a strong showing for Egypt at the 2026 FIFA World Cup, where he helped the team reach the round of 16.
