The Story in 60 Seconds

GiveMeSport's Jamie Kemble argues that Celtic striker Kasper Hogh must respond to increasing pressure to avoid becoming an £11 million transfer flop. After joining Celtic in the summer for £11 million upfront plus add-ons, the Danish international has gone over two months without a goal, scoring just three times in eight appearances. Despite his struggles, manager Martin O'Neill has publicly backed Hogh to eventually regain confidence and reach 20 goals this season.

Kemble highlights that 20-year-old Callum Osmand's two-goal performance in Celtic's 7-1 win over Hearts provides urgent competition to spur Hogh into form. Additionally, Hogh's assist for Benjamin Nygren after coming off the bench in that match offers a positive foundation to help the forward restore his confidence.
