Kyogo Furuhashi - on final striker shortlist

Fits the bill for what we need tbf. Think pep could make a lot of use out of him. It’s just weighing up whether we are better with him or a false nine.
 
Surprised he didnt end up at Spurs with Ange. Will be even more surprised if he ends up with us, I do think he is good player though
His agent also represents Ange (and Walker). It was his way to ask Celtic to provide a better contract extension. He played pretty same game with us last summer. He used Bayern Munich interest to get a good deal and a sushi dinner for Walker.
 
He might need shoulder surgery, means he'll be out for 4-5 months. No idea why we're going after him?
 
I think this would be the weirdest signing for many years. I can only see him playing if Haaland is injured, in which I think we will play with a false 9 and this lad will just be used as a super sub if things aren’t working out.

I feel like I remember the false nine era of Pep’s tenure very differently to most of the fanbase. I remember nearly everyone we played there being mostly ineffective and eventually it was Gundogan who actually scored the goals to win us the league. I wouldn’t be surprised if the board are reluctant to go back to that system.
