Jeremy Toljan joined Brendan Rodgers’s Celtic in the January transfer window.
Toljan joined Celtic on loan from Borussia Dortmund on January transfer deadline day.
The 24-year-old right-back will stay at Celtic Park on loan until the end of the season.
Celtic manager Rodgers has disclosed that the German defender took a wage-cut to play for the Glasgow giants.
Rodgers told The Scottish Sun: “Jeremy has sacrificed his own wages and money to want to come here, which shows a sign that he is hungry to get his career back on track again.
“He recognises that this is a big club which gives him the opportunity to do that. It is a great attitude to start with. It says everything for me, in terms of wanting to get football and get playing.”
Good signing for Celtic
Toljan may have struggled to make an impact at Dortmund, but there is no doubt that the right-back is very good and has a bright future ahead of him.
The 24-year-old taking a pay-cut to play for the Hoops shows just how desperate he is t o play regular football, and that can only be beneficial for Celtic in their quest to win the domestic treble this season as well.
Celtic are at the top of the Scottish Premiership table at the moment with 54 points from 24 matches, six points clear of second-placed and bitter Old Firm rivals Rangers.
