Kyogo FuruhashiI is leaning towards a sensational Celtic return after spending the past 24 hours weighing up a loan deal proposal from the Parkhead club. With Martin O’Neill back in interim charge, Celtic believe a five-month deal for Furuhashi can work for both parties. Former Parkhead striker Chris Sutton insists January recruitment remains key to Celtic’s title hopes, despite the removal of Wilfried Nancy and the return of O’Neill. ‘If Celtic do not strengthen their squad significantly in January, then I don’t think Celtic win the league. I think Martin is a super smart guy, super smart coach, and he’s very well aware that he needs help.’
