Celtic are starting to make a habit of bringing back familiar faces. Brendan Rodgers' 2023 comeback started the trend as the Northern Irishman replaced Ange Postecoglou, with the Australian leaving for Tottenham Hotspur. Then, Jota made his comeback in the winter, merely 18 months after his exit. A pre-contract agreement was put in place with Kieran Tierney as well.
Now, there is heavy speculation that Ross Doohan has also agreed a pre-contract with Celtic. His contract at Aberdeen runs out this summer and he looks set to be the replacement for the outgoing Scott Bain. And the returns might not stop there.
Kyogo Furuhashi is another player who has been linked with a move back to Celtic. It has only been a few months since he left the club to join Rennes, but it is pretty clear that that move was a major mistake that needs to be fixed in the summer. The Japanese forward has struggled to even make the matchday squad for the French Ligue 1 side.
A swift return to Celtic might make sense, with Rennes believed to be ready to let him leave for a fraction of the fee they signed him for. But other clubs seem to be keeping an eye on his situation as well.
Massive Kyogo news amid talks of blockbuster Celtic return
As reported by Le Parisien, Kyogo is on Bournemouth's radar. The player wants to leave and the Cherries have positioned themselves to find out the terms of his exit.
So, it looks like a move to the Premier League could be on the cards for Kyogo. Of course, joining Bournemouth would come with the same risks for the Japanese forward.
Will he be able to establish himself in the Bournemouth first-team? It would not make sense for him to leave Rennes, only to find himself in a similar situation elsewhere.
