O’Neill Makes Telling Høgh and Durán Comparison

Celtic manager O'Neill has defended striker Høgh following Celtic's 3-2 Europa League win over Besiktas, directly contrasting his physical style with Camilo Durán. Despite Høgh extending his goal drought to 15 matches, O'Neill emphasized that he values the £11 million forward's hold-up play and work rate, noting that unlike Durán, Høgh is not a dribbler but brings vital physicality against tough opposition.

Substitutes Callum Osmand and Durán helped turn the match against Besiktas, increasing pressure on Høgh's starting role ahead of Celtic's upcoming league fixture against Kilmarnock. The Danish striker has also recently been dropped from Denmark's national squad amid his scoring struggles.
