Some Celtic fans have made it clear that they want to see Copenhagen star Victor Nelsson at Parkhead in the near future.

Nelsson was involved in both of Celtic’s games against Copenhagen. He helped to knock the Scottish giants out of the Europa League on Thursday following the Hoops’ 3-1 loss to the Danish outfit a week after a 1-1 draw in the first leg.

Do you want Nelsson at Parkhead next summer?

Absolutely, brilliant player

No, we can't sign him

After the game, @CelticFamily67 posted about Nelsson on Twitter suggesting the Hoops should sign him at some point. Many other Celtic fans agreed with this and were in awe of the defender.

Nelsson has been a regular at the back for Copenhagen this season. He has made 36 appearances in all competitions for the club and has one assist to his name. He has made seven Europa League appearances already.

He joined the club from Nordsjaelland in the summer. At his former club, he had risen through the ranks before his move to Copenhagen.

What do we think?

On Thursday, Nelsson won as many as six aerial duels in the game. He made a total of 11 clearances, as well as winning two tackles for Copenhagen. On the basis of that performance, one can see why Celtic fans would want their club to sign the 21-year-old.
