Nicolas Kuhn was born on 1 January 2000 in Germany. Now aged 25, he is currently plying his trade as a forward, specifically as a right winger, for Celtic Football Club. He sports the number 10 jersey on his back. Kuhn stands at a height of 1.76m tall (5ft 9in) and weighs in at 69kg (10st 12lb).

His current standing in the market is set at about €12.00m (£10.5m), as indicated by Transfermarkt. His contract with Celtic is set to run until 30 June 2029, covering a period of further 4 years and 4 months.

Kuhn began his footballing journey proper at RB Leipzig II in Germany's Oberliga as a trainee in July 2015. Three years later, in January of 2018, he transferred to Jong Ajax in Netherlands' Eerste Divisie for a fee circling around £1.8m. Across the span of three seasons from 2017 to 2020, he registered 43 first team appearances and netted a total of seven goals in league matches.

January 2020 saw Kuhn once again on the move, this time returning to his home country to join Bayern München II in the Oberliga. His goal-scoring form stayed consistent here, with six goals over two seasons from 37 league appearances.

In July 2021, he moved to Erzgebirge Aue in Germany's 3. Liga, albeit on loan, where he scored three goals over the course of 27 appearances. The following year, he made the move from Bayern München II to Rapid Vienna in the Austrian Bundesliga for around £450k, where he spent two seasons and scored five goals from 36 appearances.

Kuhn's saga of club transfers reached its zenith in January 2024 when he shifted from Rapid Vienna to Celtic in the Scottish Premiership. The Celt's paid a sum of roughly £3m for his services. During the remainder of the 2023 - 2024 season, he marked his maiden Celtic season with 14 appearances and two goals. The current 2024 - 2025 season has seen Kuhn maintain a substantial presence in the Celtic squad with a personal tally of ten goals from 26 appearances.

Beyond the league fixtures, he has also made his mark in the League Cup 2024 - 2025 with five goals from four appearances, the Scottish Cup 2024 - 2025 with three starts, and the Champions League 2024 - 2025, scoring three goals in ten starts.
