Bolton Wanderers have signed forward Johnny Kenny from Scottish Premiership side Celtic until the end of the season.
The 22-year-old almost joined Wanderers last summer however he now joins as the club’s seventh signing of the winter transfer window.
The Republic of Ireland international has scored six goals in 22 appearances for the Scottish champions this season.
“I knew there’d been an interest and Bolton reached out to me a lot during the summer, but I wanted to give Celtic a crack, I think I have in the last six months.
“I’ve gained a lot of experience playing at Celtic in front of an amazing crowd every week and I just want to bring those experiences here now and hopefully help the club going forward.”
Kenny joined Celtic in 2022 and has since made 31 appearances for the club, scoring seven goals in total.
He has also had spells on loan with Queen’s Park and Shamrock Rovers.
Boss Steven Schumacher added: “We didn’t think he would be available during this window but once we were made aware Celtic would allow him to leave on loan, we acted really quickly to get the deal done.”
