Overview

Celtic FC has officially confirmed the signing of 19-year-old midfielder Joël van den Berg from PSV Eindhoven. The deal is valued at approximately £3.4 million and includes a four-year contract with an option for an additional year.

Manager Martin O’Neill described the Netherlands Under-19 international as a “hungry and talented player,” noting his role as a box-to-box midfielder. Upon completing the move, Van den Berg expressed his desire to “show the best version of himself to the fans and help the club win championships.”

To facilitate the departure, PSV Eindhoven has been active in the market. Following the exit of the Dutch midfielder, PSV acquired Ayoni Santos from Sparta Rotterdam to bolster their midfield. Additionally, PSV finalized the loan of Lutsharel Geertruida from RB Leipzig with an option to buy, a deal Technical Director Earnest Stewart noted required twelve weeks of negotiation. Other recent PSV arrivals include Mikkel Bro Hansen, Sam Lammers, and Filip Kostić, while the club also completed the high-profile sale of Ismael Saibari to Bayern Munich for €50 million. Meanwhile, Sparta Rotterdam secured Isaac Babadi on a one-year loan from PSV with an option to purchase.
