Reo Hatate has dropped a huge hint that he has no intention of quitting Celtic like Ange Postecoglou after revealing he's already set his targets for next season.
And he's admitted he actually felt a tinge of jealousy towards Japanese countryman Kyogo Furuhashi after he swept the board in the Player of the Year awards in Scotland but is proud of his part in his success. Hatate is preparing for Japan's internationals this month along with Furuhashi and Daizen Maeda after helping the Hoops win the treble.
He's been linked with a big move to England or abroad after an excellent season for Celtic. Furuhashi won both the PFA Scotland and SFWA Player of the Year awards after an outstanding season where he scored 27 league goals. And Hatate was proud to have played his part even though he admitted he looked on with a hint of envy. He said: "Looking back on my own season, I played 32 league games, scoring six goals and assisting nine. In all official games, I had nine goals and 11 assists.
