Maryan Shved currently undergoing medical at Celtic

Ukrainian forward Maryan Shved is currently completing his medical ahead of a transfer to Celtic, according to Sky Sports.

Shved will, according to the Daily Record, cost Celtic in the region of £1.75m, but he won’t feature for Brendan Rodgers’ side this season as he’s expected to go on loan for the remainder of the campaign, before joining up with the Scottish champions in the summer.

The 21-year-old will arrive from Karpaty Lviv, for whom he’s scored an impressive 14 goals in 35 games arriving from Sevilla back in 2017.

Speaking to Sky Sports about the move for Shved earlier this month, Rodgers admitted that the signing was more for the future rather than the short-term.

We’ve got about a million wingers and don’t need another one but he’s a talent and in the summer we’ll probably lose wingers and he’ll look to come in. It’s an opportunity for the club to sign a young talented player but not one that will probably help us now. He will probably be out on loan.
