Ange Postecoglou reveals Celtic transfer 'banker' to excite fans in early days of Hoops reign

Ange Postecoglou has labelled Kyogo Furuhashi his Celtic 'banker' after revealing he had no doubt he would succeed in Glasgow.

The Hoops gaffer has now been in charge for over 100 games with the work he has done at Parkhead lauded by pundits, fans and ex-pros. In his debut campaign he recaptured the Premiership crown from Rangers and lifted the League Cup in a domestic double. He has once again bagged the first trophy of the campaign while holds a healthy nine point lead at the Premiership summit and has a Scottish Cup semi-final against Michael Beale to come.

He also tasted Champions League football for the first time but it is also his work in the transfer market that has been heavily praised. Josip Juranovic arrived and left while the likes of Joe Hart, Matt O'Riley, Jota, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Aaron Mooy, Liel Abada and Reo Hatate have all landed big pass marks. They've all been in sensational form for the 57-year-old but one player stands out in particular who has been part of the ride from the very start.
