Celtic bolstered their squad on transfer deadline day by securing Junior Adamu, Joel Mvuka, and Benjamin Arthur on loan deals. The Austrian striker arrives from Freiburg, while the Norwegian winger joins from Lorient with an option to buy. Arthur, a young defender, moves from Brentford.

The additions come as Celtic look to strengthen amid a busy schedule. Adamu expressed his eagerness to contribute goals, while Arthur called the move a career highlight. Mvuka, despite earlier medical concerns, completed his switch and is eager to link up with teammate Sebastian Tounekti.

Meanwhile, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain remains a potential target as a free agent, with no immediate deal forthcoming. Celtic also rejected a third Nottingham Forest bid for Arne Engels, maintaining their stance against selling the midfielder. Departures included Stephen Welsh, Tobi Oluwayemi, and Johnny Kenny moving out on loan.

The new signings offer tactical flexibility ahead of key Scottish Premiership matches. Fans will watch closely to see how quickly the trio adapts to Ange Postecoglou’s system and whether more reinforcements arrive in the summer window.
