Trevor Sinclair has criticised Celtic full-back Josip Juranovic, linked with David Moyes’s West Ham United, on Twitter for his role in the goal that Rangers winger Ryan Kent scored in the opening minutes of the second half at Ibrox in the Old Firm derby on Monday afternoon.
The former West Ham winger was furious with the defending from Juranovic for the goal that ex-Liverpool winger Kent scored for Rangers in the 47th minute against Celtic in the Scottish Premiership.
The Croatia international full-back came on as a substitute midway through the first half.
Juranovic generally plays as a right-back, but he slotted in at left-back against Rangers at Ibrox today.
The defender did not have the best of matches, and you could argue that he should have done better for the goal that Kent scored.
The £2.5 million Croatia international (Sky Sports) should have been much closer to Fashion Sakala when the 25-year-old Zambia international received the ball.
Juranovic did not look comfortable on other occasions and did appear rusty in the Old Firm derby.
Celtic fan Sinclair was not happy with the full-back, as you can see from his tweet below.
Interestingly, the Croatian, who played at the 2022 Qatar World Cup, has been linked with Sinclair’s former club West Ham among other teams in the January transfer window.
The Sunday Post (11/12, back page) reported that Chelsea, Manchester United and Newcastle United are all interested in the Celtic star, and so are West Ham.
