Kühn enjoyed an impressive season with Celtic but now moves on for €19m after just a year and a half in Glasgow.
We can confirm that Nicolas Kuhn has today joined Italian side, Como.
Everyone at #CelticFC thanks Nicolas for his contribution to the club and we wish him every success in the future.
Thank you and good luck, Nicolas 🍀

Fabregas praised the signings referencing the qualities that attracted him to sign the Celtic player.
“Nico is sharp, technical, and understands space really well. He brings creativity and intensity—qualities that fit exactly how we want to play. He’ll give us something different in Serie A.

Since signing from Rapid Vienna in January 2024, Kühn has scored 24 goals and assisted 18 times in 69 appearances for the club, helping Celtic to win four trophies. It was expected that the player would attract interest from across Europe after his impressive displays in the UEFA Champions League.
Celtic may even come up against Kühn in their pre-season matches in Italy after facing Ajax on the 24th.
Celtic will likely advance with their plans to find a replacement for Kühn. The club bid to the player that replaced Kühn at Rapid, Isak Jansson, but missed out on the Swede after OGC Nice swooped to complete a €10m deal.
