Bosun Lawal has emerged as a standout performer for Fleetwood Town this season, catching the eye while on loan from Celtic.
Despite the team’s challenges, Lawal’s individual brilliance has been a beacon of hope, showcasing his versatility and talent across multiple positions.
Initially recruited during Scott Brown’s tenure as manager, Lawal’s journey at Fleetwood Town has seen him adapt and thrive under the guidance of three different managers. Following Brown’s departure, Lawal seamlessly transitioned his game under Lee Johnson’s leadership before further honing his skills under the guidance of Charlie Adam.
Throughout his time at Fleetwood Town, Lawal has demonstrated his ability to make a significant impact, contributing six goals and two assists in 45 appearances. What sets Lawal apart is not just his goal-scoring prowess but also his adaptability on the field. Despite being arriving as a defender, Lawal has showcased his versatility by excelling in a midfield role.
Lawal’s performance against Peterborough United on Tuesday night further underscored his importance to the team. Despite Fleetwood’s defeat, Lawal got himself an early early goal, scoring just 17 seconds into the match.

He was also given the spot-kick duties, after he won a penalty for his team, however, he did miss the shot from 12 yards. So he should fit into the Celtic first team no bother.
You’ve got to imagine that Brendan Rodgers will be looking to get the player involved in the first team, at least over pre-season to assess if he’s got what it takes to make it at Celtic. Afterall, there’s a big step up from League 1 to Celtic’s Champions League level.
