Born on 1st January 2000 (Age 25) in Germany, Nicolas Kuhn is a nimble forward now plying his trade at Celtic, primarily operating from the right wing. The 5'9" (1.76m) winger, with a tidy build of 10st 12lb (69kg), adorns the iconic number 10 shirt.
Kuhn's market value stands at a respectable £8.5m, a figure ascertained by Transfermarkt. His contract at Celtic is set to run until 30th June 2029, giving him a good four and a half years to leave an indelible mark on the club's illustrious history.
Kuhn's career trajectory began in July 2015, where he cut his teeth as a trainee at RB Leipzig II in Germany's Oberliga. With the turn of the year in January 2018, Kuhn flew the nest and transferred to Jong Ajax in the Eerste Divisie in Netherlands for a sum of around £1.8m. During his time at Jong Ajax, from the 2017-2018 season to the 2019-2020 season, Kuhn featured sporadically, breaking into the first team and managing to score five goals over three seasons.
In January 2020, Kuhn's career took another leap with a move to Bayern München II, again in the Oberliga, for an undisclosed fee. His stay at Bayern München II saw him amass a total of six goals over the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 seasons.
July 2021 brought along another shift for Kuhn, as he temporarily transferred to Erzgebirge Aue in Germany's 3. Liga on loan. During the 2021-2022 season, Kuhn made 27 first team appearances and scored three goals.
The summer of 2022 saw Kuhn making a move to Austria's Bundesliga, signing for Rapid Vienna for a modest fee of around £450k. Kuhn scored five goals over two seasons at Rapid Vienna.
Kühn's journey to Celtic began in January 2024, with the Scottish giants shelling out around £3m for his services. Since his arrival, he's become a regular feature in the first team and has already notched up 11 goals over two seasons, including an impressive nine goals in his current season (2024-2025).
In addition to his contribution in the league, Kuhn also made an impact on other fronts. He played three starts and one as a substitute in the 2024-2025 League Cup, netting five goals in the process. His performances in the 2024-2025 Champions League also deserves mention, adding two goals to his tally over six starts.
The German forward's journey has been a testament to his perseverance and determination, and his time at Celtic continues to be a clear display of his growth as a well-rounded attacker. His tale remains one of the more understated yet inspiring narratives in modern football.
