Every Celtic fan will be able to tell you about current striker Odsonne Edouard’s unbelievable quality. It is also clear to see though that it is also impacting those from outside the Celtic faithful, including new signings like Albian Ajeti.

The Swiss striker today joined the club for a fee in the region of £5 million, on a four-year deal.

As reported by Glasgow Live, when speaking to the press today, Ajeti spoke on his excitement of linking up with the Frenchman and also the number of positions he can play across the frontline which could see the partnership flourish.

“I can play as one of two strikers or on my own or with 3! I have played in many different systems. For me it is most important to attack and Celtic is an attacking club so it’s a perfect fit.

I’m looking forward to playing with Edouard. I think me and him will be a good match together. I’m a hard working striker who scores goals and works hard on and of the pitch.”

The former Augsburg and West Ham attacker also spoke about how much he is looking forward to playing with Mohamed Elyounoussi, just as he did at Swiss league side Basel, where the two became a formidable duo. The Norwegian even had a chat with Ajeti about the prospect of joining the club.

“I had a chat with Mohamed Elyounoussi and he told me about the city. He loves life here and says the city is beautiful and the club is great.”

With the addition of the 23-year old, it really does give manager Neil Lennon some brilliant options going forward.

It also gives the Northern Irishman more squad depth, which could see him go back to the favoured formation of 3-5-2, that we saw the Hoops have massive success with towards the end of last season.

I for one am extremely excited to see what Ajeti will bring to the squad, hopefully playing a crucial part in the clubs success this season.
