Overview
- The two clubs agreed the loan on Monday, Aug. 31, 2026, and Celtic confirmed the signing after Sorensen completed a medical in London and awaited international clearance.
- The contract is a season-long loan with a club option to buy the 24-year-old permanently next summer.
- Sorensen is a box-to-box midfielder who joined Parma from FC Midtjylland in August 2025, was a regular in Parma’s Serie A campaign last season, and won the Danish title with Midtjylland in 2024.
- Martin O’Neill said Sorensen offers energy, mobility and positional versatility suited to Celtic’s attacking style, and the player has expressed excitement about joining the club after speaking with former Celt Erik Sviatchenko.
- Celtic view the signing as part of a late transfer-window push that also included Joel van den Berg and Europa League squad registration, and the move aims to plug gaps created by recent midfield departures and loan moves.
