Arne Engels has made a sensational impact at Celtic since his arrival, earning praise from fans for his contributions to the team. Despite being signed for a club-record fee, the young player has exceeded expectations, especially considering the impressive performances of his predecessor, Matt O’Riley.
As a key starter in Brendan Rodgers’ lineup, Engels has quickly established himself as an essential part of the midfield alongside Callum McGregor and Reo Hatate. With a crucial Champions League match against Borussia Dortmund on the horizon, Engels has the opportunity to prove himself even further on the big stage.
Former Celtic player John Hartson has expressed admiration for Engels’ abilities, agreeing with Barry Ferguson’s belief that the newcomer may surpass O’Riley in talent. With his physical presence and impressive performances, Engels has the potential to become a standout player for Celtic in important matches, including the upcoming clash against Dortmund.
While Celtic has historically struggled in away games against top European teams, there is a sense of optimism surrounding the current squad and their chances for success. Engels’ promising start to his Celtic career has raised hopes that he can play a crucial role in the team’s European ambitions moving forward.
