Gustav Isaksen disclosed that a move to Celtic was never seriously considered. The Swedish winger had been discussed by Parkhead scouts before the transfer window closed. His club, Lazio, were only open to a permanent transfer or a loan with an obligation to buy at the end of the deal. Isaksen mentioned that he had no intention of leaving the club during the summer, irrespective of any interest, as he found the prospect of leaving 'boring' after spending a year settling in at Lazio.

There were rumors of a loan move to Celtic for Gustav Isaksen. However, the player decided to stay at Lazio, stating that he wanted to stay and become an important player for the team.

Lazio have expressed their desire to keep Gustav Isaksen for another year, but they could be persuaded to sell if a permanent offer is made. Celtic have shown interest in the winger this summer, but no official bid has been made yet. A permanent transfer or a loan with obligation to buy would be considered, but a straight loan deal is not an option.

Various reports from Italy revealed that Celts had made an enquiry for the Denmark cap but Sky Sports reports that the 23-year-old wants to stay and fight for his future at the Eternal City.
