Career

No transfer history

Arne Engels has established himself as Celtic's silver-tier Creator. Still waiting to lift his first piece of senior silverware, the Belgian midfielder arrived in Glasgow eager to dictate the rhythm. While his body of work in green and white remains in its emerging stages, the early signs point to a genuine midfield maestro.

The data backs up his hybrid creator-sniper profile. Operating on a clear upward trajectory, his output over eight appearances—yielding 555 minutes of pitch time—has been nothing short of clinical. A remarkably high Passing rating tells the story of a player who sees angles others miss. He has secured the GOLD TRAY badge, delivering an assist in half of his outings, while his ARCHITECT status is cemented by nearly two key passes per ninety. Adding a goal and two assists across a five-match burst, he seamlessly blends elite vision with tangible end product.

Valued at €10M with a stable market trend, his stock continues to generate headlines. Massive transfer chatter and rejected bids from south of the border underscore his growing importance. As Old Firm derby day pressures loom, his creative engine looks entirely capable of handling the highest stakes.
