Celtic have completed the Deadline Day signing of winger Sebastian Tounekti from Hammarby IF on a five-year deal.\n<\/p>\n

The Scottish champions had two bids rejected before their \u00a35.2m offer was accepted.<\/p>\n

Tounekti has scored two goals in 25 appearances for the Swedish side since joining from Norwegian club Haugesund in February.<\/p>\n

The 23-year-old, who was born in Norway but plays for Tunisia, is predominantly a left winger but can play on the right.<\/p>\n

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers said: “I’m really happy that Sebastian has joined the club and I am sure he will be a really exciting addition to our squad.<\/p>\n

“He will give us that real added attacking intent and I am sure he can make a big difference to us.<\/p>\n

“He is a quick, clever winger who can operate on both sides, creating opportunities for himself and others. Myself and our coaches are really looking forward to working with Sebastian.”<\/p>\n

What else happened at Celtic on deadline day?<\/strong> <\/p>\n

\"Kasper<\/p>\n

\n Kasper Dolberg was a top Celtic target<\/p>\n

Celtic <\/strong>went into Deadline Day hoping to sign two wingers and two strikers.<\/p>\n

They were close to agreeing a deal for Anderlecht striker Kasper Dolberg<\/strong>, but Ajax hijacked that bid with the Hoops accepting defeat.<\/p>\n

Chelsea’s David Datro Fofana<\/strong> turned down a loan approach in favour of a deal with Charlton.<\/p>\n

They are in talks with Kelechi Iheanacho <\/strong>who is a free agent after being released by Sevilla and can sign anytime, although the Europa League deadline is Tuesday at 11pm.<\/p>\n

Hyunjun Yang<\/strong> travelled to Birmingham to prepare for his proposed \u00a33m move, but that collapsed with City running out of patience and signing ex-Hoops player Patrick Roberts<\/strong> from Sunderland instead.<\/p>\n

\"Adam<\/p>\n

That resulted in Celtic pulling out of an agreed loan deal for Burnley’s Manuel Benson.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Striker Adam Idah<\/strong> completed a \u00a37m move to Swansea City, and Motherwell signed centre-back Stephen Welsh<\/strong> on a season-long loan.<\/p>\n
