Yang Hyun-Jun said his farewell to Gangwon supporters following the 1-1 draw at home to Seoul but there has still not been any confirmation of the move by Celtic.
Just past 10am on Saturday, Celtic Park Time, the K-League side announced on Instagram that the transfer had been completed accompanied by a Thank You message for the winger.
Saturday came and went without any comment or announcement from Celtic but at the Korean end it appears to have been signed off.
Yang sat out the draw with Seoul, met the fans afterwards but still there has been no comment from the club that he is apparently on his way to joining.

Translation: Here is a greeting from player Hyun-jun Yang after today’s game? Everyone please stay with me until the end
Celtic may have been planning to announce the signing while they are in Japan with the squad arriving tomorrow ahead of matches on Wednesday and Saturday.
There will be work permit issues in bringing Yang to Scotland but they would have been progressing in tandem with transfer negotiations.
