While Blackburn Rovers and Bolton Wanderers were also attempting to sign Celtic's 23-year-old Irish striker Johnny Kenny, it appears Preston North End have finalized the signing. Preston agreed to a £3 million fee with Celtic for the forward. It is understood that the forward has agreed to a four-year contract with the Championship club. Kenny, who has two caps for Ireland, joined Celtic in January 2022 and recently came back from a loan at Bolton. His contract with the Scottish club was set to expire in 2029, and his current market value is €1.20m, according to Transfermarkt.
