Celtic target valued at £7m and compared to ex-Ajax star
The Hoops reportedly made a £1.5 million offer for the Go Ahead Eagles winger, with Celtic on the lookout for a replacement for Nicolas Kuhn, who was sold to big-spending Serie A outfit Como for £17 million. But Go Ahead want far more money for the Danish Under 21s star. And former Twente Enschede and Go Ahead Eagles boss Jan van Staa reckons it's no surprise top clubs are monitoring the 21-year-old. He said: "You know what it is about Breum? Every club is looking for something Breum is certainly special. "I am not saying he will have the same career as Dusan Tadic, but he reminds me of him and Twente sold him for £7 million. Read more: "Breum has already played a lot of games for a young player. "It would be a lot of money for him, but it wouldn't surprise me at all if a big club would pay that. "Look at his form last season and his potential. "If I really wanted to find a special player in the Netherlands, he'd be on that list. "You're looking for extra class and this guy has extra class."

Jakob Breum exit fee sparks TV transfer debate as Celtic warned daring Eagles will not budge over star man
Breum earned acclaim last season with 10 goals and six assists despite having his season curtailed for three months Coveted Jakob Breum will not be sold for less than £5.2million as Go Ahead Eagles refuse to budge over an exit for their coveted playmaker. Sporting director Jan Willem van Dop has told interested parties of the Eagles' stance that he wants £6m euros after it was reported that Celtic had a £1.5m bid turfed out last month. Breum earned acclaim last season with 10 goals and six assists despite having his season curtailed for three months due to a foot injury. A recent TV debate centered around Eredivisie clubs receiving competitive fees for their finest talents with the 21-year-old Dane's name cropping up as a player who should land a significant fee. And it comes weeks after Breum was namechecked as a player coveted by the biggest clubs in the Netherlands. RTV Oost journalist Tijmen van Wissing stated: "He's on the radar of top clubs in the Netherlands. He's obviously turned out to be a real crowd-pleaser." Boss Brendan Rodgers made it abundantly clear after the 4-0 win over Newcastle that he is seeking firepower to truly replace Kyogo's departure in January and Nicolas Kuhn after his £17.2m move to Como.

Celtic missed out with £1.5m bid for Dutch-based winger a month ago
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CELTIC have reportedly had a £1.5million bid thrown out for Go Ahead Eagles winger Jakob Breum. The 21-year-old enjoyed an impressive season in the Eredivisie last year with 10 goals in 26 games, which is claimed caught the attention of the Hoops. 3 Celtic's offer for Jakob Breum of Go Ahead Eagles fell short Credit: Getty 3 Brendan Rodgers wants to replace the goals that have gone out of the team Credit: Getty 3 Antwerp's Michel-Ange Balikwisha has also been linked Credit: AFP A Dutch media outlet revealed at the start of the month that they had rejected a bid from a "foreign club". The club's director Jan Willem van Dop told RTV Oost: "The only thing that's going on, and as far as we're concerned, that's not going through, is a bid for Jakob Breum from a foreign club. "We're so far apart on that. You have to stand your ground. "And then a guy like that also has to realise that it could very well be a good thing to stay with us at least until the winter break, just like Oliver Edvardsen." It's now being claimed by the Celtic Way that the foreign club was Celtic. Brendan Rodgers' side are in the market for a replacement for Nicolas Kuhn who left for Como in a £17million deal, while Jota won't return to action until after the new year. They've brought in Sweden attacker Benjamin Nygren in a cut-price £2m deal from Nordsjaelland. And they've also been strongly linked with Antwerp's Michel-Ange Balikwisha, but his agent has revealed while there is interest, no offers have been made for the 24-year-old. But Brendan Rodgers has made no secret of his desire to strengthen the squad and replace the goals that have gone out of the team after the departure of Matt O'Riley, Kyogo Furuhashi and Kuhn. The reported £1.5m offer was far short of what the Dutch club's valuation for both Breum and midfielder Oliver Antman who were both priced at around £5m. "We think Breum and Antman should go for more than six million [euros]. "If that doesn't happen with this club, maybe another one will. And if not, we hope that with all the positive feeling they have, they'll stay with us and go into Europe. "And then we'll take a closer look during the winter break." Celtic bid farewell to yet another winger at the beginning of this week. Luis Palma sealed a loan move to Polish champions Lech Poznan on Monday.

Jakob Breum to Celtic transfer bid 'rejected' as asking price revealed for Danish star
Brendan Rodgers is on the hunt for wide men with Kuhn sold and Jota out injured until 2026 but they will have to up the ante Celtic have reportedly had a £1.5million bid rejected for Go Ahead Eagles star Jakob Breum. Brendan Rodgers is on the hunt for wide men and is said to be interested in the young Dane. Nicolas Kuhn has joined Italian side Como and Jota is sidelined until next year which has left Celtic short, with Antwerp's Belgian winger Michel-Ange Balikwisha also on their radar. However, The Celtic Way report that the Scottish Premiership champions have failed with their opening bid for the 21-year-old. Breum moved to the Dutch side from Odense in his homeland. And the report states that Celtic's offer 'for right sided attacker Breum fell well below the Dutch club's valuation of £5million'. The Eredivisie side's club director Jan Willem van Dop spoke earlier this month of interest in Breum and an offer from a 'foreign club', said to be Celtic. He said: 'The only thing that is going on and as far as we are concerned are the unsuccessful moves. There has been a bid for Jakob Breum from a foreign club 'We are so far apart there. You have to stand your ground. He may have to realise that it could be very good to stay with us at least until the winter break. 'We think that Breum and Antman should be allowed to leave for more than £5million. If that doesn't happen with this club, then maybe another one will come. 'And if not, then we hope that with all the positive feelings they have, they will stay with us and go into Europe. Then we will see during the winter break.'
