Yang has been spotted in the colours of Norwich City
We told you last week how Norwich were a likely destination for the player.
He'll follow Nicolas Kuhn, who joined Como on a permanent deal this summer, and Luis Palma, who's on the move to Lech Poznan on loan, on the way out of Parkhead this summer.
He'll also likely be joined going out the exit door by another winger in the form of Aussie star Marco Tilio, who has been strongly linked with a move to Rapid Vienna - while big money recruit Jota is out injured for several months.
Yang, 23, moved to Celtic two years ago in a £2million deal from Gangwon in his homeland.
He appeared 34 times across all competitions last season, just nine of those were league starts.
In total, Yang has featured 65 times for the Hoops and scored seven goals.
Brendan Rodgers has added Benjamin Nygren but is still hoping to add to his wide options this transfer window.
Antwerp's Michel-Ange Balikwisha has been a long term target and the departure of Yang could pave the way for his arrival.
The Canaries are in the market for a new winger after losing star man Borja Sainz in a mega money deal.
Norwich have made an incredible profit on Spanish winger Sainz who they signed on a free transfer from Turkish side Giresunspor in 2023.

And SunSport understands that Yang is the man they think can fill that void.

Jakob Breum transfer stance made clear to Celtic as timeline set on price drop
The Hoops have already seen offers turned down for the Danish winger this summer Go Ahead Eagles have made it clear that they won't sell Celtic target Jakob Breum for anything less than £5million this summer. Record Sport understands that the Dutch side won't budge on their selling price because they have to pay 25 per cent of a sell-on to his former club, Odense. Go Ahead have also qualified for the Europa Conference League and they want to keep their top stars for that. Record Sport has also learnt that the Danish under-21 cap would be available for a fraction of the price, nearer £2million if he was to remain until next summer. Celtic have made an offer and held further talks but went in at just over £1.5 million that was dismissed. The Hoops have been reluctant to go close to Go Ahead's current fee. Unless they or another club meet the asking price then he won't be leaving Holland in this window.

Aberdeen FC transfer news as fresh move made for Marko Lazetic with Pape Gueye heading for exit
The Dons are in the market for four new faces this summer Aberdeen have tabled a fresh proposal for Marko Lazetic and are also close to netting more than £850,000 for Pape Gueye. The Dons are in talks with AC Milan over their Serbian under-21 cap. Their opening bid was turned down as the Serie A giants look to recoup as much of the €4million they paid Red Star in 2022. The Dons first tried to land the 21-year-old in January, but ran out of time at the end of the window. They have rekindled their interest in the last week with Lazetic unlikely to make an impact at the San Siro. Jimmy Thelin is looking to bring in another striker but is likely to be looking for two. Kasimpasa are closing in on a £850,000 plus move for Gueye. A deal with the Turkish side has still to be finalised but if the move goes ahead then the Dons will net a fee in excess of €1million, plus further add-ons. Aberdeen paid Kortrijk a fee of around £500,000 back in 2023. The Belgian side are also due a chunky sell-on but any move would also see the Pittodrie outfit turn a decent profit. Aberdeen are looking to bring in four new players before the close of the window. You can sign up to our newsletters to make sure you never miss a beat throughout the season.

Former Barcelona midfielder in hospital after dog bite to his genitals
Former Barcelona midfielder Carles Perez has been hospitalised in Greece after being bitten on the genitals by a dog. The incident took place in Thermi, a suburb on the southern outskirts of Thessaloniki, while Perez was walking his dog on Tuesday morning. During the walk, Perez's dog was attacked by another dog and while trying to separate the two animals, the 27-year-old was bitten on the genitals. The Spanish midfielder was taken to a private hospital in Panorama, another suburb outside Thessaloniki, after suffering a 'deep gash' to his genitals, which required six stitches. Aris confirmed on Wednesday that Perez has suffered a 'soft tissue infection' from the dog bite. Perez has now been ruled out of Aris' UEFA Conference League qualifier at home to Azerbaijani side Araz-Nakhchivan on Thursday. Speaking on Wednesday, Aris manager Marinos Ouzounidis confirmed that Perez was due to start against Araz-Nakhchivan. 'Carles would have been in the starting line-up,' Ouzounidis said at a press conference. More Trending 'This incident happened but we can't dwell on it any longer. My mind is working on alternative solutions and we have worked on them. 'That's why I insist that it's important to have players with personality. So I'm interested in the group of players that I will have at my disposal, to give the most they can.' Perez, who made his first-team debut for Barcelona in 2019, has also played for Roma, Celta and Getafe. He joined Greek Super League side Aris on a season-long loan from Celta earlier this month.
