Celtic defender Jeremy Toljan has impressed in his first appearances for Brendan Rodgers’ side.

Jeremy Toljan has told the Glasgow Evening Times that he wants to make history at Celtic.

Toljan only arrived at Celtic in the January transfer window, but he has already been informed of the task at hand.

Brendan Rodgers is yet to lost a domestic cup match in Scotland, since moving to Celtic three seasons ago.

The remarkable run means that Celtic are now on the verge of breaking Walter Smith’s unbeaten record at Rangers, which stood at 23 matches during the 1990’s.

And Toljan claims that Celtic’s players have already told him about the piece of history they could claim.

“My ambitions are positive,” said Toljan. “I think as a footballer these Cup games are the best. Cup and Europa league are the best.

“Everybody has told me that no team has made it before. Hopefully we can achieve it and win it.”

Jeremy Toljan of Celtic arrives at the stadium prior to the Ladbrokes Premiership match between St Johnstone and Celtic at McDiarmid Park on February 3, 2019 in Perth, United Kingdom.

Toljan appears to have already broken into Celtic’s first choice line-up, with the right-back catching the eye already.

The 24-year-old was in excellent form in Celtic’s last match, as Rodgers’ men picked up a 2-0 victory over Hibernian.

The Bhoys are next in action when they take on St. Johnstone on Sunday.
