Sir Kenny Dalglish has raved about Southampton-owned Celtic goalkeeper Fraser Forster in The Sunday Post.

The Celtic legend has been impressed with Forster, who joined the Glasgow giants on loan from Premier League outfit Southampton in the summer transfer window.

Dalglish was pleased to see the 31-year-old goalkeeper make an important save from the penalty against FC Copenhagen in the Europa League last week.

Dalglish wrote in The Sunday Post: “It was yet another brilliant, and important, save from the big Englishman. What a signing he has turned out to be.”

Making loan deal permanent?

While Dalglish’s observation about Forster may be obvious, it is something that all Celtic fans will agree with.

The 31-year-old has been a superb addition to the Celtic team, and he has risen to the occasion many times.

The Celtic defenders do look more assured with the Southampton-owned goalkeeper behind them.

Celtic should really look into making Forster’s loan deal from Southampton permanent at the end of the season.
