Christopher Jullien has joined Neil Lennon’s Celtic in the summer transfer window.
Celtic forward Odsonne Edouard has spoken highly of Christopher Jullien on the club’s official Twitter page.
The Hoops have signed Jullien from French club Toulouse in the summer transfer window for a fee reported by BBC Sport to be worth £7 million.
Celtic forward Edouard played with Jullien during his loan spell at Toulouse from Paris Saint-Germain, and the 21-year-old Frenchman – who made his plan move to the Hoops from PSG permanent in the summer of 2018 for a transfer fee reported by Sky Sports to be worth £9 million – has praised the 26-year-old defender.
Good signing for Celtic?
Celtic needed to sign a defender in the summer transfer window following the departure of Dedryck Boyata and the return of Filip Benkovic to his parent club Leicester City from his loan spell at the Hoops last season.
Jullien is a very good and capable defender, and the Frenchman will prove to be a shrewd signing for the Glasgow giants.
