The Lowdown: Solbakken profiled
da winzada777: The Hoops will know all about Solbakken, with the 23-year-old scoring one goal and providing an assist in Bodo/Glimt’s 5-1 aggregate win over Ange Postecoglou’s side in the Europa Conference League over the last fortnight.

Solbakken is primarily a right winger who can also play on the left and has 21 goals to his name during his career. The Norway international is out of contract at the end of the calendar year, and links with Celtic have now emerged.
The Latest: Solbakken offered to Celtic
CeltsAreHere shared a story on Friday morning regarding Solbakken, with his agency informing the website that the player is 100% out of contract in December and that there is no extension clause.
The report added that the winger had already been offered to Celtic last summer, and urged the Hoops to go back in for his signature over the next six months.
The Verdict: One to watch?
It seems as if Solbakken could move on from Bodo/Glimt for nothing at the end of 2022, so it might make sense for Celtic to keep a close eye on his situation.
He has shown to Postecoglou firsthand that he can impress on the European stage, and the Hoops boss may now be regretting turning down a move over the summer.
Contact has already been made by the player’s agency and Celtic, as per this update, so it wouldn’t come as a shock if the club decide to go after Solbakken over the next six months.
