Sead Hakšabanović, who spent last season on loan at Stoke City, will not be playing for Brendan Rodgers’ Celtic team. We reported last month on reports from Sweden that Verona, Torino, and Parma are interested in the winger; it was also stated that Celtic, who paid €2.5 million to sign him in 2022, value the player at €3 million. The Celtic player will not be going to Italy, as reports from Sweden’s Expressen now state he is expected to join Malmö FF.
Fotboll Direkt first reported that Malmö are buying the 25-year-old from Brendan Rodgers’ side. They also said the Celtic man will be ‘presented shortly’ at the Swedish club.
This is backed up by Expressen, who then provide their own information on this case. It’s claimed the Montenegro international has agreed a five-year deal with Malmö, who now have to find an agreement with Celtic.
Sources have informed Expressen that Malmö and Celtic will ‘agree on the framework of the deal’. The two clubs are working to agree a deal ‘shortly’ for the player’s transfer.
There’s no mention of Celtic’s request or the fee Malmö will offer to sign Hakšabanović.
