James Keatings back on the goal trail
The appearances as trialists of Ingolfur Sigurdsson and Rabiu Ibrahim captured most attention alongwith recent signing Mikael Lustig appearing at right-back
A serious cruciate injury suffered in April against Hamilton Accies brought Keatings scoring exploits to a halt last season but in his third match since regaining fitness his instinct seemed back to it’s best.
Keats equalised for Celtic before half-time stooping to head home a Dylan McGeough cross from the right then perfectly timed a half volley from Sigurdsson’s accurate cross from the left to put Celtic in front.
A fully fit Keatings would be a great loan signing for any SPL club but Neil Lennon is well aware of the 20-year-old’s ability.
This morning Celtic have been linked with a move for Bolton’s Kevin Davies with the Celtic boss going on record to state that he wants to bring in a striker during the transfer window.
If Lennon gets to bring someone in it’s likely that Keatings will go out on loan, if Celtic are unable to add a striker I don’t think Lennon will have any hesitation in throwing Keats in if any of his established strikers are injured.
