The Story in 60 Seconds

The Celtic Bhoys writer Jamie Kemble argues that Celtic winger Haissem Hassan must begin performing consistently following his summer transfer. The Egyptian international joined the club for an upfront fee of £6 million plus add-ons after competing in the World Cup, but has experienced a mixed start to his tenure in Glasgow.

While Hassan's disrupted pre-season previously provided mitigation, Kemble asserts that fitness excuses are no longer valid six weeks into the campaign. Following teammate Kasper Hogh being substituted at half-time against Benfica, Kemble expects Hassan to earn an opportunity against Hearts and show regular dominance in the Scottish Premiership.
