Augsburg reportedly informed Celtic that they are holding out for £10 million in exchange for Arne Engels.
The 20-year-old Belgian wants to sign with Brendan Rodgers’ team before the transfer window closes, and it seems the Bundesliga team is easing their strict position on him after previously demanding up to £12 million for the midfield player. In an attempt to test the determination of the Bavarian team, Celtic has made a second offer in the area of £9 million after their first offer, which was rejected, was rejected for around £6.5 million.
However, The Sun report Augsburg is looking to pay “closer to £10m” for a player who is reportedly Celtic’s top target and the person they want to replace Matt O’Riley in the midfield engine room of the Hoops. The champions would break the record for the most money paid out for a player for the second time this transfer window if they accept the demands of the German team, surpassing the £9.5 million paid to sign Adam Idah from Norwich City.
Mateusz Bogusz is expected to be named in the LAFC roster for their matchup with the Seattle Sounders, thus it appears that a transaction including him may also come down to the wire.recognizes that the Scottish Premiership champions are still considering making a bid for Bogusz, but it is less than what the Major League Soccer team is asking for.

Auston Trusty is the target of a £5 million bid from Celtic, and Sheffield United manager Chris Wilders has acknowledged that the Blades must evaluate offers before the deadline. During the EFL Cup loss to Barnsley, the US international was benched.
In response to growing attention, Wilder was questioned about dropping stars while speaking full-time to the BBC. “I haven’t had any problems with the boys,” he replied. A number of them are certainly of interest, and I’ve spoken with the lads and we’ve had conversations. I want to speak with them and advise them on what’s best for them. All I ask is that they focus on performing and being green; everything else will work itself out.” GET MORE NEWS HERE
