“Birmingham City Football Club can confirm that an agreement has been reached with Rangers FC for the permanent transfer of Japanese forward Kyogo Furuhashi.
The transfer remains subject to the completion of personal terms, a medical and the usual regulatory approvals.
Since arriving at St. Andrew’s, Kyogo has represented the club with professionalism, commitment and dedication. Everyone at Birmingham City would like to thank him for his contribution and wish him every success in the next chapter of his career“
Kyogo Furuhashi.
The Japanese international became one of Celtic’s modern-day heroes after arriving from Vissel Kobe in 2021. During his four-year stay at Celtic Park, he scored 63 league goals in 116 appearances, helping the club win multiple domestic trophies before departing for Rennes and later Birmingham City.
The circulating statement only added fuel to the speculation, despite there being no official confirmation from either club. Rangers supporters interpreted the growing rumours as a sign that an announcement could be imminent, with many praising Derek McInnes for reportedly targeting one of the Scottish Premiership’s most clinical forwards.
Chris Sutton’s reaction on social media only intensified the debate. While the former Celtic striker did not confirm the transfer, his comments quickly went viral, with thousands of supporters dissecting every word. Many Rangers fans believed Sutton’s response suggested there was genuine movement behind the scenes, while Celtic supporters dismissed the speculation and urged others to wait for official confirmation.
Across social media, Rangers supporters expressed excitement at the possibility of adding a proven goalscorer to their squad. Many described the potential signing as a major statement of intent by McInnes, believing it would significantly strengthen Rangers’ title ambitions heading into the new season.
Meanwhile, many Celtic supporters reacted with disbelief at the prospect of seeing one of their recent fan favourites potentially swap the green and white hoops for the blue of Rangers. Others insisted such a move would permanently change how the striker is remembered among the Celtic faithful.
