Celtic fans celebrated a memorable Champions League victory against Young Boys, but the night may have marked the end of an era for one of their star players in the iconic green and white Hoops.

Kyogo Furuhashi’s £10m Celtic Exit: Rennes in the Frame

Speculation surrounding Kyogo Furuhashi’s future at Celtic has intensified, with Rennes reportedly on the verge of completing a £10 million deal for the Japanese striker.

If confirmed, the transfer would bring an end to Kyogo’s prolific stint at the club, during which he scored an impressive 85 goals in 166 appearances.

The potential departure is a bitter pill for Celtic fans to swallow, especially in the wake of such an uplifting Champions League win.

Should Kyogo leave, it would leave Brendan Rodgers with a significant challenge to replace the 30-year-old forward who has been instrumental in Celtic’s success.

While Kyogo’s exit looms large, Sky Sports journalist Anthony Joseph has shared an intriguing update that could soften the blow for Celtic supporters. Joseph suggests that Kyogo’s departure might pave the way for the return of former fan favorite Jota.

Jota, who became a cult hero during his two seasons at Celtic Park, has long been linked with a possible return.

According to Joseph, discussions between the clubs have taken place, raising the prospect of the Portuguese winger making a dramatic comeback.

“Rennes are in advanced talks to sign Celtic striker Kyogo Furuhashi for £10m,” Joseph explained.

“Kyogo is keen to join a top 5 league club to enhance his chances of playing in the World Cup with Japan. Separately, a Celtic return for Jota has been discussed by the clubs.”

For many Celtic fans, Jota’s return would be a welcome consolation. His electric performances, particularly against Rangers and other Scottish sides, endeared him to the Parkhead faithful during his time at the club.

While Kyogo’s potential departure leaves uncertainty, the possibility of Jota returning offers hope of continued attacking flair at Celtic Park. For now, supporters will anxiously await further developments on both fronts.
