Sebastian Tounekti, a winger Celtic purchased from Hammarby for an undisclosed sum, is expected to “make a big difference,” according to manager Brendan Rodgers.
The 23-year-old Norwegian-born player has played twice for his adopted nation on a five-year contract with the Scottish champions.
After 22 games with Hammarby, Tounekti only joined the Swedish top-flight team in February from Norwegian outfit Haugesund, leaving with Hammarby sitting second in the Allsvenskan.
Rodgers stated on the website that his squad would be “a really exciting addition.”
He can operate on both sides, opening up opportunities for both himself and others, according to him. Working with Sebastian is a great opportunity for both of us and our coaches.
Tounekti began his professional career with Tromsdalen in Norway before moving to Bod/Glimt, where he was loaned to Groningen.
After joining Haugesund in 2022, he also spent time on loan to Ranheim.
