Camilo Duran Joins Celtic on Five‑Year Deal

Transfer Confirmation

Celtic have announced the signing of Colombian forward Camilo Duran from Azerbaijan Premier League side Qarabag. The 24‑year‑old moves on a five‑year contract for an undisclosed fee. This acquisition marks the Scottish champions’ first summer signing.

Previous Season Highlights

Last term Duran netted 15 goals and contributed 10 assists for Qarabag. Five of those strikes came across ten Champions League appearances, helping the club finish as Azerbaijan Premier League runners‑up.

Duran’s Dream Realised

Camilo Duran told club media, “It was a dream come true playing in the Champions League,” a sentiment that echoes his childhood aspirations. “That’s what you dream of as a kid, so to score goals was amazing and that’s what I want to continue doing here, scoring goals in the Champions League.” He added, “I give it my all in every game, with a lot of effort and dedication, and hopefully the goals will come.” He also shared, “It’s an honour to be the first Colombian to play for Celtic. It’s been a dream of mine since I was a kid [to play for my country] and I hope that being here at Celtic and working well, then one day that will become true.”

Future Outlook

The five‑year contract gives Celtic a long‑term option on a player who shone on Europe’s biggest stage. If the undisclosed fee meets expectations, the club will have bolstered its attacking ranks. More updates about the deal and his integration are expected to follow.
