Former footballer turned Sky Sports pundit, Chris Sutton, expressed his concerns about Celtic’s striking options following their 2-0 win against Hibs. While impressed by Celtic’s performance, especially in the first half, Sutton highlighted the need for another striker to support Kyogo, who suffered a shoulder issue during the game.
Kyogo was able to return to the pitch after the injury but was later substituted as a precaution. Sutton took to social media to emphasize the importance of Celtic signing a new number nine this summer to avoid risking further injuries to key players like Kyogo.
One potential target for Celtic is Adam Idah, who impressed while on loan at Glasgow last season. The Norwich striker has been on Celtic’s radar, with manager Brendan Rodgers confirming that discussions to bring Idah to the club are ongoing. Despite Idah’s current status as a Norwich player, Rodgers remained hopeful about a possible deal in the future.
With the new season underway, Celtic will need to address their striking options to ensure they have enough depth and quality in the squad. The addition of another striker, like Idah, could provide the necessary support and competition for places in the team.
As Celtic look to challenge for silverware this season, strengthening their attacking options will be crucial in maintaining their competitive edge in the Scottish Premiership. The ongoing pursuit of Idah reflects Celtic’s commitment to bolstering their squad and addressing any weaknesses that may arise during the campaign. Fans will be eager to see how the transfer window unfolds and whether Celtic can secure the signing of a new striker to enhance their chances of success.
