South Korean striker Oh Hyeon-gyu has become the fourth January transfer window signing for Celtic after penning a five-year Parkhead deal.
The young frontman follows Yuki Kobayashi, Alistair Johnston and Tomoki Iwata as Ange Postecoglou strengthens for a Treble tilt. The 21-year-old international emerged as a target as chances of signing his compatriot and World Cup star Cho Gue-sung seemed to take a hit as he opted not to move in this window. Hyeon-gyu was capped at full international level in November and joins from Suwon Samsung Bluewings in a deal reported to be worth around £3 million after a lengthy hunt for a new frontman from the Scottish Premiership leaders.
He was included in South Korea's preliminary squad for Qatar only to be cut when Tottenham Hotspur star Son Heung-min recovered from injury. Celtic announced the capture of the striker after he completed his medical and speaking on the club website, boss Ange Postecoglou said: “We are delighted to bring Oh to Celtic.
