Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou has hailed the capture of Yuki Kobayashi - with left-sided centre-backs 'hard to find'.
The 57-year-old has tapped back into the J-League market to snap up up the highly regarded defender on a five-year deal as he gets his winter window plans underway a whole month before business commences in January. He followed a similar path last season when he swooped for Daizen Maeda, Reo Hatate and Yosuke Ideguchi.
The Celtic gaffer believes his latest recruit has 'great potential' ahead of him and is at a really good age with the stopper really keen to make the move to Scotland and have a real crack at European football. He will join up with his new club next week and will be eligible for competitive action from January 2023.
