Apparently we've made an opening bid for the 21yr old Norwegian winger Sondre Orjasaeter.

Looks like Maeda will replace Kyogo up front if we're after another winger.
{Ed007's Note - Or it's Maeda's replacement for the summer. Are we just dropping Idah altogether now? Nobody seems to mention him for even getting game time now that Kyogo's left, do you think Maeda will be our first choice striker then?}

If the 7 million fee is true then id guess we are getting in maedas replacement now to give him a few months to settle before being ready to go properly next season. Possibly the forward planning everyone had been crying out for.
{Ed007's Note - That's my thinking, there is now way that Jota hasn't been brought in to become first choice LW and I can't see Maeda being happy to be seen as back-up and a limited game time.}

I was thinking that the boy could be a replacement for Khun in the summer.
{Ed007's Note - Orjasaeter is a LW/LM, Jon.}

Sorry Ed, didn't know that.

No Ed, I just meant he will be Kyogo's replacement as a striker for now until the summer at least due to inflated prices in Jan. We've seen little of Maeda up front apart from one game this season to suggest he will be our first choice. He's versatile so can cover if we have injury issues on the wing like last month. I'm not Idah bashing there are definitely games I prefer Idah starting due to his height and physicality. I don't think either Maeda or even more so Hatate will be with us much longer.
{Ed007's Note - But Kyogo was our first choice strike, to replace him with Maeda would make Maeda our first choice striker... There is no way tha Rodgers is going to move Maeda into the middle and play him in front of Idah. I honestly don't get where some Celtic fans see this team going forward
