There are so many players who could make an impact this season. Especially the bhoys who came in half way through last season.
The trio from Japan arrived at the beginning of the year. Maeda and Reo have already made their mark but you get the sense there’s more to come. We’ve saw little of Yosuke Ideguchi as of yet, but hopefully the midfielder can turn things around.
When talking up this Celtic squad, Chris Sutton gushed over the potential of Reo Hatate. Citing the players pre-season game against Legia as proof the bhoys could have a special player on their booked.
Reo came crashing onto the scene, scoring a worldly goal against Hearts and then following it up with a match winning double in the Glasgow Derby. Towards the end of the season, fatigue crept into his game. Understandable considering the number of games he played before joining the Hoops in January.
Now refreshed and reenergised, if Reo can turn it up the gears, the Japanese star could help Celtic win their title and push on in Europe.
Exciting times ahead.
