Perez signed for Celtic on deadline day in January.
Manny Perez has revealed it will be a dream come true to play in front of 60,000 Celtic fans.
The United States youth full-back signed for Celtic at the end of the January transfer window before being loaned to North Carolina FC until the end of the North American season.
Responding to fans via his Instagram story earlier on Tuesday evening, Perez said he:
- Is looking forward to playing for Celtic and “can’t wait” to do so
- Is most looking forward to “everything”
- “Hopefully one day the dream (of playing in front of 60,000 Celtic fans) will come true”
- Has been to a Celtic game, which was “one of the best experiences ever”
- And is “always” keeping an eye on Celtic’s progress
Perez, who can also represent Mexico internationally, is said to have rejected moves to Major League Soccer clubs in order to join Celtic.
He did so alongside another American full-back, Andrew Gutman, who is currently on loan with Charlotte Independence.
Will Perez prove a good addition for Celtic?
