Celtic's January transfer window activity has been minimal, with only two additions to the squad as the deadline approaches. Manager Martin O'Neill is actively seeking to strengthen the team, particularly in the forward position.

The club is reportedly exploring a loan deal for Austrian international striker Junior Adamu, who currently plays for SC Freiburg in the German Bundesliga. According to Sky Sports journalist Florian Plettenberg, Celtic are in concrete discussions and are competing with two other clubs to secure the 24-year-old versatile forward.

Adamu has earned nine caps for Austria but has not been a prolific scorer. His record includes seven goals and four assists in 67 appearances for Freiburg, and 23 goals in 83 games during his prior spell at RB Salzburg. His last goal was a penalty in a Europa League draw against Bologna in October 2025.
