Europa League participants SC Freiburg gave up striker Junior Adamu at the last minute.
The Austrian with Nigerian roots is moving to Celtic Glasgow in Scotland on loan until the end of the season. The Bundesliga soccer team announced this on Monday. This season, Adamu made nine appearances in the Bundesliga and seven in the European Cup (one goal each).
Adamu is supposed to collect appearances from VfB Stuttgart’s European play-off opponents, which he was no longer able to reliably get in Freiburg. “We’re hoping for a new dynamic with the loan to Celtic,” said sporting director Klemens Hartenbach. Adamu moved from RB Salzburg to Freiburg in 2024.
