However, sources closest to Real Oviedo insist the final figure is €7 million. The transfer will be made official in the coming hours after the player passes his medical tests.

What future awaits Hassan at Celtic? Hassan, an Egypt international, joins Martin O’Neill’s project at Celtic, where he aims to establish himself in the Scottish Premier League. Meanwhile, Real Oviedo will use the funds to strengthen its squad in the Segunda División.
