Celtic poised to bid for Brøndby midfielder Tahirović

Celtic are preparing a significant financial offer to sign Brøndby midfielder Benjamin Tahirović, according to multiple reports. The Scottish champions are aiming to move decisively to secure the 23-year-old Bosnian international, with FC Porto and domestic rivals Rangers also credited with interest in the player.

Tahirović, who stands 6ft 3in, has made 49 appearances for the Danish Superliga side since joining from Ajax in February 2025, scoring one goal. His profile as a physical, defensively-minded midfielder who is comfortable in possession reportedly fits a need for Celtic, who sought greater solidity in central areas during parts of last season.

While no formal bid has been confirmed, reports indicate Celtic are ready to open negotiations and are currently viewed as the best-placed club to complete a deal. Brøndby are under no immediate pressure to sell, as Tahirović’s contract runs for another two years. The Danish club is reportedly content to wait, believing the midfielder’s market value could increase if he performs well at the upcoming World Cup.
