Mitchel Bakker (born 20 June 2000, age 26) is a Dutch left-back associated chiefly with Bayer Leverkusen. His most productive league season came in 2022-23, when he scored three goals in 28 appearances for the German club.
He was linked with a move to Celtic in July 2026. That is the extent of the Celtic connection for now – a transfer line, not a career chapter.
Transfermarkt values him at around £2m. His profile is straightforward enough: a Netherlands left-back with established experience at Bayer Leverkusen and a modest scoring peak in the Bundesliga.
