Oliver Burke has described Celtic’s new kit as ‘sexy’ on Instagram.

Celtic captain Scott Brown posted a photo of himself wearing the Hoops’ new away shirt on social media.

Brown asked people for their opinions and Burke, who left Parkhead this summer following the expiration of his loan, responded with a one-word comment.

Had things been different, Burke might’ve been wearing it next season but the Scotland and West Bromwich Albion winger declined in a major way toward the end of his short-term stint.

The 22-year-old joined Celtic on a six-month loan in January and originally looked like a brilliant addition, posting a number of Gareth Bale-like performances.

But once Brendan Rodgers quit, Burke struggled to find his best form under successor Neil Lennon and a permanent move for the former Leipzig attacker – who earns £30,000 per week with West Brom [Silly Season] – never really looked on the cards.

Burke didn’t score a single goal for the Bhoys under Lennon, and only managed one assist. Then again, he only played on eight occasions once Rodgers left in what perhaps illustrates his decline.
