Odsonne Edouard is an important player for Celtic.
Celtic manager Neil Lennon has told The Scottish Sun that there is more to come from Odsonne Edouard.
Lennon has praised the 21-year-old French forward, having worked with the youngster during the final months of last season following his appointment in the managerial role at Celtic.
Lennon told The Scottish Sun about Edouard: “He did very well as the lone striker and he took on that responsibility very well. Odsonne was the one fit, quality, bona-fide striker that we had in the final stretch of the season.
“I know what I have with Odsonne and there is a lot more to come from him. He is only 21, so there is a lot of scope for development there with him.”
Important player
Edouard does not always play well and lacks consistency, but the forward is very talented and is hugely promising.
The former France Under-19 international can only get better in the coming years, and staying at Celtic and working under Lennon will enable him to do that.
It will be interesting to see if Edouard and Leigh Griffiths play together in attack under Lennon next season.
If the two strikers play alongside each other, then Celtic will be almost unstoppable in attack.
Title defence
Celtic have won the Scottish Premiership title for the past eight seasons, and the Hoops will start the 2019-20 campaign as favourites as well.
Rangers will be aiming to give the Hoops a run for their money in the title race next season.
