Celtic’s Social Media team have quickly latched on to the popularity of Kyogo Furuhashi.
Six goals from five starts added in with an infectious attitude has made Celtic fans smile again after a season of streaming misery.
When you score a hat-trick on your home debut you create a high benchmark but the follow up work has been just as impressive with Japan flags popping up around Celtic Park with the striker responding to the support and backing he’s had after less than three weeks in Scotland.
Moussa Dembele enjoyed a similar impact when he arrived at Celtic five years ago, it is only early days but Kyogo shows every sign of going on to be as successful as the Frenchman.
Commercial benefits and Social Media interaction is all well and good but tomorrow at 3pm the Celtic support will be back in love with their team with one player in particular looking to build on the feel-good factor.
