Neil Lennon has claimed that Celtic new boy, Kyogo Furuhashi, has been a ‘revelation’ for the club this season, as he told Sky Sports.
The Bhoys legend also added that there might just be ‘a little more transfer business’ to do at Celtic after being snubbed by the now-Middlesbrough player, Riley McGree.
At the start of the month, there was, of course, the long-expected news of the Japanese trio, Daizen Maeda, Reo Hatate and Yosuke Ideguchi moving to the club.
They join their fellow countryman, Kyogo, in Glasgow, who has had a stellar start to life at the club.
The 27-year-old has scored eight Premiership goals from his 14 matches and has been a livewire for Ange Postecoglou.
Lennon shared his thoughts on Celtic, their transfer business and the man who is now walking the club’s dugout.
“I actually bumped into the chairman on the way down here,” said Lennon. “They have backed Ange and they trust his judgment.
“Kyogo, who came in at the start of the season, has been a revelation. Ange is going back into the market that he knows very well.
“The two players (Reo Hatate and Daizen Maeda) that started against Hibernian seems to have hit the ground running.
“It’s interesting, they missed out on the young lad, McGree, who went to Middlesbrough, so there may be a little bit more transfer business for Celtic to do between now and the end of the window.”
The style of play big Ange has implemented at Celtic Park has been quite impressive and easy-one-the eye.
But it’s all about reclaiming that Scottish Premiership crown, with the all-important Old Firm around the corner.
Whilst it won’t be too long before Celtic and Rangers are locking horns in their rearranged fixture, there are still a few important matches in between.
Celtic face off against Hearts and Dundee United for their next few league games, with the gap between their bitter rivals down to four points after their dropped points at Aberdeen.
