Celtic FC has officially announced the signing of Ghanaian international Jeffrey Schlupp on a season-long loan from Crystal Palace, a move that excited fans and pundits alike.

The 32-year-old veteran midfielder, who has spent nearly eight years at the London club since his transfer from Leicester City in 2017, is looking to revitalize his career at Celtic Park as he approaches the final months of his contract with Palace.

Celtic’s manager, Brendan Rodgers, expressed his enthusiasm about the new addition, stating, "Jeffrey is a fantastic guy with immense experience. He boasts impressive attributes such as power, pace, and versatility, which will undoubtedly enhance our squad's dynamics. I believe he will play a crucial role in our ambitions this season."

Schlupp joins a Celtic side that has been performing exceptionally well both in the Scottish Premiership and in European competitions. He has made 16 appearances for Palace this season, all as a substitute, and is eager to contribute more significantly at Celtic. Throughout his career, Schlupp has demonstrated adaptability, playing various roles including left-back, winger, midfielder, and forward.

Reflecting on his move, Schlupp stated, "The team has been remarkable this season. I’m thrilled to be part of such a successful group and aim to contribute to our goals moving forward." Celtic fans are hoping his experience and dynamic playing style will help the team drive towards more silverware this season.
