Albian Ajeti in Celtic 'no regrets' admission as outcast reflects on what went wrong at Parkhead

Albian Ajeti is adamant he has no regrets from his time at Celtic despite wishing he had been given more of an opportunity at Parkhead.

The striker was brought to Glasgow's east end from West Ham in 2020 by then-boss Neil Lennon, with the Hoops shelling out £4.5million to secure his services. The 25-year-old was then part of the squad who aimed to make history in a battle for 10-in-a-row. He marked his league debut by bagging a late winner as a sub at Dundee United - scoring five goals in his first six Premiership games. However, injuries and tactical tweaks under new manager Ange Postecoglou led to a reduced role.

Despite an impressive start at Celtic, Ajeti quickly fell out of favour and failed to establish himself as a bonafide Parkhead star. The frontman soon found himself on the outside looking in with his hamstring injury against Real Betis proving the hurdle he could not get over. And it was not long until an 'available' sign was put up which resulted in him joining Sturm Graz on a season-long loan.
