Jakob Breum admits transfer could happen amid Celtic talk
However, it seems unlikely that the Scottish Premiership champions will secure a deal, as the Eredivisie side are unwilling to sell for less than £5 million.
Celtic's latest bid was around £1.5 million.
Breum, who played in Go Ahead's narrow defeat to PSV Eindhoven on Sunday, says his future remains uncertain after a successful debut season in the Netherlands.
The 21-year-old told ESPN: "Time will tell.
"There's still one month left, but as long as I'm here, I'll do my best.
"It's a boring answer, but that's the way it is.
"Now that important players have left, other players have to step up."

Russell Martin dismisses 'dropping' key Rangers duo
Eyebrows were raised when James Tavernier and Nicolas Raskin were left out of Martin's starting line-up for the Champions League third-round qualifier against Viktoria Plzen. The game ended 3-0 to the hosts, securing a strong position in the play-off round. Martin is keen to avoid the term 'dropped' and has indicated that he will use a different line-up for Saturday's match against Dundee in the Scottish Premiership. He told BBC Scotland: "I'm really happy with a lot of it. "A bit annoyed with the last 15 minutes since I felt we had the ball too much in our own half, but that's my job to be demanding of the guys. "I think from Saturday to today, they took everything on, amazing energy at the start of the game, and real moments of quality actually." Martin expressed his pride in the team for their performance, especially after a challenging game on Saturday. He said: "It's really difficult to learn a lot of detail and apply it with the right intensity and courage all the time, especially after a tough afternoon on Saturday, so I'm really proud of the team." The Rangers manager also explained his approach to squad rotation, saying: "I don't like the word 'dropped'. "I said that to the guys, you don't get dropped from the team, we're going to need everyone. "People are going to come in, people are going to come out, so we need that freshness." Martin acknowledged the difficulty in making these decisions, particularly regarding key players. He added: "It's not easy to drop anyone, especially players that have been really important to this team over the last however long, but the decisions are all difficult, one is not tougher than the other. "You have to do what you think is best for the team to win on the night and, to be fair, they've come on and played brilliantly." Oliver Antman and Djeidi Gassama were standout performers, with Gassama scoring his third and fourth goals of the Champions League qualifiers. Antman, who made his debut after signing the day before, won a penalty that was converted by Cyriel Dessers and provided a cross for Gassama's second goal. Martin praised Antman's performance, saying: "I think you can see why we wanted to sign him. "He's game, he's willing, he's really competitive and he has moments of real quality. "So I'm really pleased for him because he's a really good kid, and I think he'll be a really good player for us." He also commended Gassama's development and eagerness to score, saying: "Gassama is really stepping up in terms of intensity, he really wants to score. "He's taken on the information really, really well."

Losing 2-0 at Hearts to kick off the 2025/26 Premiership campaign was a bit of a comedown from the Dons' last competitive match, the Scottish Cup final triumph against Celtic at the end of May. Events in Gorgie were a reminder of what they are up against this season. That heady day at Hampden made last term a rip-roaring success, but Aberdeen fans don't need told that they ended up sitting fifth in the league on the back of some dreadful form during the winter. At points earlier in the season, second place was being discussed. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Aberdeen finished behind Hibs and Dundee United but ahead of Hearts, who underperformed and slumped to seventh place. There appears little chance of the Jambos being as meek this time around. Tynecastle was back to its crackling and boisterous best, revitalised by the arrival of Derek McInnes as head coach and fresh investment from new shareholder Tony Bloom. Aberdeen's Nicolas Milanovic tries to take on Hearts' Harry Milne. | SNS Group The Dons are behind Hearts and other rivals due to their season commencing later. They lacked sharpness as Hearts tore into their visitors right from the off. 'We've only had two, three games up until this game and they've been playing some good football in the cup,' was the assessment of Aberdeen winger Nicolas Milanovic afterwards. 'So yeah, I think they're maybe a little bit sharper, a little bit game-ready.' It doesn't get any easier for Aberdeen this weekend. Celtic are in town for a high noon Sunday showdown. "I think we'll just work with the manager,' continued Milanovic for the week ahead. 'We trust him and he'll put a gameplan in place. And we'll just work on those little things that I felt weren't great today.' Milanovic, one of Aberdeen's summer signings, was a ray of light on a dark evening. The Australian right winger was their most dangerous outlet, running at the Hearts defence and cutting on to his left. The Dons paid in the region of £400,000 to Western Sydney Wanderers for the 23-year-old and he has a big year ahead of him. Not only will be made his European bow later this month against either FCSB or Drita, but he is gunning for a first Australia cap and a place at the World Cup next summer. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad 'I'm looking forward to more games like that' 'Look, despite the result today, I really enjoyed it,' said Milanovic. 'I feel like I thrive in those moments, especially with the crowd. It's so hostile and I really enjoyed it. I'm just looking forward to more games like that. I'm sure it'll be like that at home next week. 'A kid from Australia, I didn't really expect two years ago to be playing in a Europa League play-off. So yeah, I'm excited. That's another thing, a personal achievement I've got coming my way. I think the team's going to be more than ready for that draw. I don't know if it's a favourable or unfavourable draw, but we'll just go in there wanting to win, of course.' Progress domestically and on the continent will help on the international front. 'I've still yet to make my first cap for Australia,' he added. 'You know, I've been around it, but just haven't made that cap yet.

'Crazy.' Tomas Bent Magnusson reveals what Hearts fans can expect and describes his Tynecastle debut
Icelander's Scottish Premiership introduction was a manic Monday Sign up to our Hearts newsletter Sign up Thank you for signing up!

The Valsvöllur in Reykjavik is a modest community stadium with only one stand, a capacity of 2,465 people, and often an icy swirling wind. Until last week, it was home to Tómas Bent Magnússon. One can only imagine what went through the Icelandic midfielder's mind stepping out into a tumultuous Tynecastle Park on Monday night. An initial five-figure transfer fee took the 22-year-old from Valur Reykjavik to Hearts as took the chance to experience Scottish football. For the opening Premiership fixture against Aberdeen, Tynecastle was at its quintessentially Scottish best: Raucous, hostile, intimidating, electric. You know the scene. Magnusson loved every second of his new team's 2-0 victory. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad He replaced Lawrence Shankland in stoppage-time for a Hearts debut which was as memorable as it was brief. 'It's a weight lifted off my shoulders,' he said. 'I can't really sum it up. It happened all really quickly and I'm just really happy that I made my debut. I can't wait to move on to the next game. It was crazy. The fans were crazy. I've never experienced like this before but it's great. If it's like this in every game, I can't wait for the next one. 'Getting off to a winning start, that's the most important thing. It's a big club. The Scottish Premiership is a big league as well. When I heard that they wanted me, I couldn't really hesitate about coming out.' Magnusson did some research before leaving his homeland and held talks with the Hearts sporting director, Graeme Jones, and head coach Derek McInnes. 'Yeah, after the contact was made with Valur back home, I spoke to the gaffer and Graeme as well. They just told me what the plan was with the club and how they see everything moving forward,' he explained. Hearts transfer delay for another new signing While prospective signing Pierre Landry Kabore, a Burkina Faso internationalist, has been in Edinburgh for a month and is still awaiting a UK work permit, Magnusson's visa came through swiftly. He found out just hours before Monday's fixture that he would be involved. 'Monday morning, just when the offices were open. I was pretty hopeful it would happen. Most of the guys have got their visa pretty quickly, except Kabore, so I was hopeful,' he said. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Hearts fans can expect an energetic, aggressive midfielder in the hairband-sporting Magnusson. He is a low-maintenance type who enjoys a humble approach to his work. Standing 6ft 2ins tall, he carries an aerial threat at set-pieces and is likely to enjoy the frenetic nature of the Scottish league. He also has ambitions to lift silverware in a maroon shirt. 'I'm a guy who gives it his all, a ball-winner. I get up and down the field and just do what I'm asked to do,' said the player. 'I want to achieve a lot here. We've got ambitions for everything and obviously every player wants to win titles. That's what we want to do.'
