Celtic fans on Twitter have urged Odsonne Edouard to stay at Celtic after his game-changing cameo on Saturday.

The Hoops moved into the semi-final of the Scottish Cup with a 3-0 demolition of Greenock Morton at Parkhead.

Moussa Dembele struck two second-half goals – including one penalty – and Edouard fired home another in the dying minutes to give Brendan Rodgers’s side a somewhat flattering win.

Prior to Edouard’s introduction at half time, Celtic were struggling up front and fans of the Premiership leaders believe that the 20-year-old’s arrival was the turning point in the game.

The young French striker is only on loan with Rodgers’s side from Paris Saint-Germain but a £7 million price-tag (Daily Mail) might have put paid to the Northern Irishman’s hopes of signing him on a permanent basis.

Nevertheless, Celtic fans clearly want Edouard – who has seven goals in 10 starts this season – to stay after responding to a post-match message on Twitter.
