Jordan Lotomba completes Feyenoord exit for Celtic
The Swiss right-back has ended his two-year spell in Rotterdam and signed a one-season contract with the Scottish club.
Jordan Lotomba has left Feyenoord permanently to continue his career with Celtic. The Rotterdam club confirmed the 27-year-old Swiss right-back’s departure in a brief message published around midnight, bringing his two-season spell at De Kuip to an end.
Lotomba has signed with Celtic for one season. The move did not have to be completed by the Dutch deadline, as Scottish clubs were still permitted to register players until 18:00 on 3 September.
Celtic manager Martin O’Neill welcomed the defender’s arrival, highlighting his pace, strength and experience. He also described Lotomba as a versatile player who can operate on either side of the pitch and is comfortable in possession.
The defender leaves Feyenoord after making 41 official appearances, scoring once and providing five assists. His departure still leaves the Rotterdam side with three options at right-back: Givairo Read, Mats Deijl and Bart Nieuwkoop.
