Celtic striker Kyogo Furuhashi, who is competing for Oh Hyun-kyu’s position, is receiving a love call from a Premier League club.
Italian media Calcio Mercato reported on the 24th (Korean time), “Crystal Palace is expected to start earnestly in signing Celtic striker Furuhashi.”
Furuhashi, who started playing in Scotland from the 2021/22 season, is currently a Celtic immovable striker. He has been active as a key striker with 46 goals and 10 assists in 72 appearances for Celtic so far.
Especially after the start of the 2022/23 season, his skills were in full bloom. Furuhashi scored the most goals in the team with 26 goals and 5 assists in 39 games this season, and is a strong Scottish Premiership top scorer with 20 goals in the league alone카지노사이트.
As Furuhashi emerged as one of the best forwards on the Scottish stage, Premier League clubs began to show interest.
The media said, “Palace is getting serious about the recruitment of Furuhashi,” and said, “Even though manager Patrick Viera resigned, Palace is preparing a transfer fee of 20 million pounds (approximately 31.7 billion won) for Furuhashi.”
“If Furuhashi leaves the team for 20 million pounds (approximately 31.7 billion won), Celtic will have to make a big decision in the coming summer, as it will record transfer income that will remain in the club’s history.”
“Relations between the two teams are considered good, as Celtic have sent striker Oddsson Edouard to Palace in the past,” he said.
Edouard, who scored 87 goals and 38 assists in 179 games in Celtic, and was the league’s top scorer twice, moved to Palace in the summer of 2021 for a transfer fee of 15 million pounds (approximately 23.8 billion won).
Attention is focusing on whether Palace, which had recruited Celtic’s main gun in the past, will once again bring back the Scottish top scorer by promoting the recruitment of Furuhashi.
On the other hand, as Furuhashi was surrounded by transfer rumors, attention was focused on Oh Hyun-gyu’s position. Oh Hyun-gyu, who joined Celtic during the winter transfer window in January, has so far scored 3 goals in 10 games.
Oh Hyeon-kyu is showing good performance by scoring 3 goals even though he played 9 out of 10 games as a substitute, but Furuhashi is holding the position of Celtic’s frontline striker so he is not getting a chance to start.
If Furuhashi leaves Celtic, there is a high possibility that Oh Hyun-kyu will fill the vacancy, so attention is focused on Furuhashi’s future ahead of the summer transfer market.
