Celtic have announced the arrival of striker Kasper Hogh and confirmed they have paid a "club record transfer" for the Denmark international.
Reports suggest the Glasgow club have paid £11m plus add-ons for the Bodo/Glimt forward, who scored five goals in last season's Champions League.
But who else has broken the signing record at Parkhead?
Before Hogh, it was Arne Engels. The Belgium midfielder joined in August 2024 from Bundesliga side Augsburg in a deal believed to be worth £11m in total.
That came two weeks after Celtic had broken their previous transfer record to sign Norwich City striker Adam Idah, after a relatively successful loan spell in Glasgow's east end, for £9.5m.
That Idah deal broke a transfer record previously set by Odsonne Edouard's £9m arrival from Paris Saint-Germain.
The striker also spent a season on loan before making the move permanent in June 2018 for what the club called "the biggest transfer in Celtic's history" - a record that had stood since John Hartson's £6m move in 2001.
Jota's return to Parkhead may not have broken the signing record but his re-signing from Al-Ittihad came close and is believed to have cost Celtic £8m. The Portuguese winger left the club in 2023 to join the Saudi Pro League side for £25m but returned less than two years later.
Celtic had initially paid £6.5m from Portuguese side Benfica for the forward in 2021.
