Well this guy signed with high expectations but hasn’t quite clicked yet. Though to be fair he has only had very limited appearances in the first team last season. And he may not have impressed as much as he’d have liked so far.
Klimala is another January 2020 signing, he joined Celtic for around £3.5m also for four and a half years from the Polish league. He looks quick and like many players you can find videos of great goals or assists online. His 7 goals in 18 games while at his last Polish club isn’t bad by any means.
When Klimala signed the logic would have been to provide support for Odsonne Edouard, with Leigh Griffiths still not quite back. But of course Griffiths grabbed his chance with some great goals to be firmly back in the picture. Which will have limited Klimala’s opportunities. But in some later games we saw Bayo selected on the bench ahead of him, which does raise a question mark or two. Fourth choice striker isn’t where Klimala will want to be in the pecking order.
But a striker just needs chances and if they can take them on the pitch then it’s both exciting and confidence building. It often leads to a “goalden” streak and Kilimala will have to work hard to get his chance. Expect to see him pressing hard for his chance in the side.
