Reports had linked Ozan Kabak with a free transfer to Celtic, given his contract was set to expire. However, a transfer to Celtic for Kabak this summer now appears unlikely. According to Sky Germany’s Florian Pettenberg, Kabak has signed a new contract with Hoffenheim that runs until June 2030 and includes a €25 million release clause valid from the summer of 2027.

Ozan Kabak, who has been associated with a transfer to Parkhead, is mentioned as a player who could pose a significant goal threat from set-pieces for the club.

Celtic is reported to be interested in signing former Liverpool and Norwich defender Ozan Kabak on a free transfer. The 25-year-old Turkey international is set to leave Bundesliga side Hoffenheim when his contract expires in June. Kabak is on the club's shortlist as a potential low-cost solution, with Roma, West Ham United, and Milan also recently linked with the defender.
