Celtic are set to confirm the signing of Fulham striker Callum Osmand this week when his contract officially expires, sources have told Football Insider.

The 19-year-old is in Glasgow putting the finishing touches to his move to the Scottish champions.

Osmand has agreed a four-year deal at Celtic with the Scottish club only having to pay a training compensation fee to Fulham due to his expiring contract.

The forward, who has represented England and Wales at youth level, is leaving Craven Cottage after six years with the west London side.

Celtic set to wrap up fourth summer deal

He has been prolific for Fulham at youth level, scoring 11 goals and notching four assists in 22 appearances across all competitions for the Under-21 side last term.

Osmand scored more than 30 goals for the Under-18 and Under-21 side in the 2023-24 campaign and is now set to make the step to Scottish giants Celtic.

The teenager is yet to make his first appearance in senior football but could challenge for a place in Brendan Rodgers' side in the 2025-26 campaign.

Celtic, who won the Scottish Premiership and Scottish League Cup last term, have already wrapped up deals for Kieran Tierney, Ross Doohan and Benjamin Nygren this summer.

It is believed a final decision will be down to the player with Celtic potentially able to offer Champions League football – if they can navigate through their qualifying campaign.

The Hoops stand to make a huge profit on the winger after spending a fee of just £3million to land him in January 2024.
