GIORGOS GIAKOUMAKIS jokes that he is still waiting on his trophy to mark his achievement of being the Scottish Premiership’s top scorer last season, but the Celtic striker received an honour that meant a great deal more to him over the summer in any case.
Footage emerged on social media of a clearly emotional Giakoumakis recognised by his home village of Atsalenios, a suburb of Heraklion, for everything that he has achieved in football to date. To make the moment all the more poignant, his elderly grandfather – also Giorgos - was on hand to present him with his award.
