Celtic’s Arne Engels Special Friday Night Moment
Arne Engels is having an unforgettable week after becoming Celtic’s most expensive signing. Following his £11m transfer from Augsburg, the 20-year-old was thrust into the heart of one of Football’s most famous fixtures, making his debut in Celtic’s 3-0 victory over Rangers in the Glasgow derby.
Engels came off the bench for the final 30 minutes and impressed with his composure, constantly seeking possession in midfield and showing he can handle the pressure of such a fierce rivalry.
Just a day after completing his move to Celtic, Engels made his way to the, Belgium national team, his first senior call call being a huge moment in the youngster’s career.
His debut for Belgium came days after his Celtic bow, as he came off the bench in Belgium’s 3-1 win over Israel in the Nations League. The midfielder came on with fifteen minutes to go.
With comPetition for places fierce in Belgium’s star-studded midfield—featuring players like Kevin De Bruyne and Youri Tielemans—Engels will need to work hard to secure regular minutes.
However, this experience is set to benefit both his international career and his journey with Celtic. After such a whirlwind start, the young midfielder will be aiming to cement his place at both club and international levels in the coming months.
