Giorgos Giakoumakis has traded Celtic for a new start in the MLS with Atlanta United.
The Hoops forward - who joined the club 18 months ago from VVV-Venlo - made a slow start to life at Parkhead before bursting onto the scene and netting 17 goals in 29 appearances in his debut campaign under Ange Postecoglou. This season he has found minutes from the start much harder to come by due to the form of fans' favourite Kyogo Furuhashi but has still netted nine times including a Champions League group stage strike.
The Greece international penned a five-year deal on his arrival in Scotland but after an excellent return in year one of his long-term deal he was hoping for improved fresh terms but talks stalled and after a long-running transfer saga, the 28-year-old has now moved on from Celtic to start a new challenge. Urawa Red Diamonds in Japan had also been keen to make a move happen but he's chosen to ply his trade in the MLS after penning a deal until 2026.
