Neil Lennon has joked that Gary Hooper's fitness levels are WORSE than Alan Brazil's at the moment after making the move to Cyprus to join Neil Lennon.
The former Celtic striker is the latest former SPFL star to make the move to Omonia Nicosia after former Rangers and Hibs star Brandon Barker and ex-Hoops defender Adam Matthews made the switch to join Lennon in his new adventure. The Hoops hero and his troops face a big task tonight in the Europa League as they face English giants Manchester United in Cyprus. The duo then go head to head next week in the return at Old Trafford.
Lennon's priority is the league and challenging for the Champions League qualifiers as he hailed the 'absolutely brilliant' impact Adam Matthews has made. Barker also scored an important Europa League qualifying goal with Lennon certain Hooper will be an asset once he finds his fitness and is properly up and running.
