Report shares positive transfer update on Celtic signing Ho-yeon Jeong

It’s a top-tier midfielder from South Korea, not a striker or left back.

Celtic’s midfield is fairly potent when everyone is healthy, with Paulo Bernardo emerging as a standout player in recent weeks and Callum McGregor, Reo Hatate, and Matt O’Riley as the major players.

However, there is a lack of depth, as The Daily Record now states that Celtic has spoken with Ho-yeon Jeong, a midfielder for FC Gwangju.

There is reportedly a “good chance” that a trade for the 23-year-old will materialize before the January transfer window closes.

However, it appears that his team would prefer that he depart at the conclusion of the season, so in these closing weeks, this is definitely someone to keep an eye on!
For someone like Bernardo, whose midfield spot is now his own, his absence turned out to be a gift in disguise.

On paper, however, Hatate appears to be Celtic’s finest player; the captain is dependable at all times, while O’Riley leads Scotland in scoring this year.

Ultimately, the manager will have to make some important decisions after everyone is fully recovered and ready to work.

And you’ll hope that when Ho-yeon Jeong does show up, he gives the park’s center greater depth and quality.
