That’s 21 goals in 44 starts for Celtic. Liel Abada might be a winger but the youngster’s stats read like a prolific one-in-two striker. The Israeli has set a ridiculously high standard since arriving in Glasgow.
He has racked up six goals already this term – including a double against Rangers in the Old Firm derby – despite not being a first pick for gaffer Ange Postecoglou. Abada has been a revelation after making the move to Parkhead from Maccabi Petah Tikva in summer 2021. And, at just 20, he’s only going to get better for the Hoops.
After his first campaign with Celts he was already being linked with big-money transfers to the Premier League or elsewhere. Last week, after switching agents, Abada was having to reiterate how happy he is at Celtic – with pundits predicting that his future value could rise to £15million.
