New dad Giorgos Giakoumakis knows he might struggling for kip in the coming weeks with his family heading back to Glasgow.
But the Celtic hitman insists his focus is still on giving Scottish Premiership defenders sleepless nights. The Greek hitman is celebrating the arrival of his new daughter in the summer but his family had to remain in his homeland sorting out travel arrangements. Giakoumakis is thrilled they are on the way along with the night time feeds but the frontman is hungry to get back on the goal trail.
He said: “They are back in Greece at the moment as they need to sort out a passport but they should be here in the next 10 days. I miss my family, my son, my daughter and my wife, so I am looking forward to bringing them back. Of course, it’s difficult. Your family have to be next to you all the time, otherwise it’s very difficult as you don’t get many days off to travel to them. From the moment we decided to give birth in Greece, we knew it would be tough for a month or two because they had to stay back. But it won’t be much longer until they are with me. They are my strength all the time.”
