Kasper Høgh, born on 6 December 2000 (age 25), is a Danish striker who moved to Celtic in July 2026 from Bodo Glimt for around £11m. He had been linked with Celtic earlier that year, in January and May, before the deal was completed.

His strongest league season came at Bodo Glimt in 2025, when he scored 17 goals in 28 appearances. That was the form that gave the move a clear logic, rather than the usual fog of striker speculation.

At Celtic, Høgh has remained involved in the first team during 2026-2027. He has made 10 league appearances and scored three league goals, with further involvement in the League Cup, Champions League qualifiers and Europa League. Across all competitions for Celtic, he has played 18 times and scored three goals.

He has also stayed in the Denmark picture this season, with appearances in World Cup qualifying and the Nations League, scoring once in qualifying. His current market value is around £10m, according to Transfermarkt.

Høgh’s career to this point has moved from a productive spell in Norway to a regular role at Celtic, with international involvement alongside it. He is still in the early stages of his time in Glasgow, but he has already become part of the working first-team group.
