Celtic, West Ham Confirm Bids for Strikers Cummings, Ørjasæter

Celtic is actively pursuing new signings as the winter transfer window approaches its deadline, particularly to fill the striker void left by Kyogo Furuhashi. While talks to sign Kelechi Iheanacho from Sevilla have been reported, they have also faced setbacks, with discussions over Mathias Kvistgaarden from Brondby breaking down. Meanwhile, 18-year-old Daniel Cummings has reportedly agreed to a pre-contract with West Ham United, signaling a potential exit from Celtic. Additionally, young forward Zeidane Inoussa has caught Celtic's attention, though a deal seems unlikely this window. Brendan Rodgers has indicated that securing players may rely more on loan deals as the transfer deadline approaches. The club's attempts to sign winger Sondre Ørjasæter from Sarpsborg have also been met with rejection but they remain hopeful for future negotiations.
