Many Celtic fans seem to be delighted with the appointment of Brendan Rodgers as the club’s new manager.

And validly so – the 50 year old has a proven track record of success and he knows the football club inside out.

On top of this, he is an outstanding coach and one who will undoubtedly improve several members of the current Celtic squad.

And one player whom he will be eagerly awaiting to work with is Kyogo.

The star striker was key for the Bhoys under Postecoglou and will have been disheartened by the Australian’s departure.

His future has been up in the air lately as a result of this and his latest comments won’t fill fans with much confidence.

After Japan’s victory over Peru, the striker spoke to the media and said (Daily Record):

“My ambition this season was to win all three trophies and win the Player of the Year and I have managed that. I was able to do that because I had a lot of support from my teammates.

“But right now, I want to have a long rest and think about things after that. I am delighted I was able to end a great season for me on a high.”

It will be intriguing to see what lies in wait for Kyogo and Hoops fans across the globe will be eager to see him stay at Celtic.

Under Rodgers, the Japanese would assuredly keep performing to optimum levels.

The Japanese hero is entering the final two years of his Celtic contract. Meaning it’s the optimal time to sell the striker if Celtic want to get the largest fee for him.

  1. Proven track record of success. That’s a joke isn’t it? His Liverpool team choked in 2014 when on the verge of the title. He put the two worst European defeats ever on Celtic’s record, then he abandoned Celtic to go to Leicester City, who had been English champions less than 3 years before he took charge, and by the end of his time there, he got them relegated to the second level. If that is success, i don’t even want to know what you’d consider a failure.
