Emilio Izaguirre is feeling the love after returning to the Celtic first team.
Kieran Tierney’s ankle ligament damage has reopened the first team door to the popular Honduran internationalist.
Izaguirre has long been a favourite of the Celtic support, never failing to recognise and acknowledge the backing that he gets, especially away from home.
Now in his seventh season at the club his twitter account is quieter than most players but tonight he left his 7,000 followers in no doubt about where his heart lies.
I love you back @Celtic fans

I’m not only a Celtic player, I am a fan as well. @celticfc

Since Tierney was injured in training Izaguirre has been drafted in to play against Aberdeen and Borussia Monchengladbach.
After the game in Germany he revealed that he was looking to leave Celtic last summer but that possibility was blocked by Brendan Rodgers who required back up for Tierney.
Izaguirre will be 31 when his contract expires and is unlikely to be offered a new deal after seven seasons at the club.
