Emilio Izaguirre

It will not for me. He has been a great and very loyal player for us. But sadly clearly his time is up. I would be playing Hayes at left back to see out the season personally to give Tierney a break until the cup final.

 

Lol..

 

If he plays at Pittodrie or ibrox lennons absolutely at it.

 

Looks absolutely clueless out there.

 

Bringing him back has to be the cheapest , laziest , most braindead piece of recruitment in years.

 

EMILIO IZAGUIRRE has revealed Celtic have offered him a new one-year deal, but he may quit to play in the MLS.

The Honduran left back won his 11th winners medal with the Hoops after joining from Motagua nine years ago.

He returned to Celtic in August after an ill-fated spell in Saudi Arabia with Al-Fayha and the 32-year-old admits he has a major decision to make this summer.

Izaguirre said: “Celtic have offered me another one-year deal on my contract.


I don’t know what I am going to do yet. I am discussing it with my family.

“Neil Lennon has spoken to me and he wants me to remain at Celtic. But I want to be closer to Honduras when I play with the national team.


I hope something comes up in the MLS for me. That’s the wish of me and my wife.

“So my future is difficult to predict. My agent is dealing with it at the moment and when I return to Honduras in the summer, I will decide.


It’s difficult because my children have grown up here in Scotland. My son doesn’t need a translator – he speaks to us in a Scottish accent!

“Only * knows whether I will remain in Scotland.”

And Izaguirre – who is now the most decorated Honduran player to play abroad – insists the winners medals are all the sweeter because of the start he made to his Hoops career.

Izaguirre said: “The most special one was my first trophy at Celtic.


In my first season we lost a League Cup Final to Rangers and lost the league on the last day of the season after being in front all year.

“So to win the first title was very special and now I have seven league titles. I once won Player of the Year and that was very special to me because of the affection I received from the fans.


“This season I was delighted that Neil Lennon came back. He was with me for four years and was like a father figure to me.

“Thank * he returned and he is still counting on me.”

And the full back, in an interview with a Honduran publication Diez, admitted he had enjoyed a terrific career in Glasgow.


He said: “I’ve played in the Champions League and got to the Last 16, I’ve played in two World Cups so I have had a fulfilling career.

“I’ve played against Lionel Messi in the Champions League and Cristiano Ronaldo in a friendly.

“But I am very proud to be Honduran. I wouldn’t change that for anything.”

 

Lenny defo getting job

 

I honestly give up

 

Oh for Christ's sake is this a * take?

 

That’s my constipation shifted!

 

Lenny offering him a new deal..

Astonishing

I genuinely have no word's..

 

Genuinely an embarrassment

 

Celtic loves you more than you will know


I can hear the CL group stage music already ♫

 

* ridiculous.

 

That's beyond a joke.

 

What the actual * is going on here? Please go to the US and get Lennon tae * with trying to give contracts to the old guard for * sake.

 

If that's true you can be * sure Lustig will have been offered a bumper new contract as well. Might as well bring back Hooper and Ledley too.

 

Offering Izzy a new contract is sheer lunacy, he was past it years ago. We need to go out and get a solid reliable back up to KT, maybe even spend some money, dare I say.

 

Or we could use our academy. Daniel Church deserves a run out. Why waste money when we could have a good back up already?

Same goes for the likes of Henderson, Welsh and McInroy.

 

From the sounds of that it is likely that he will end up at a team in the US playing MLS and good luck to Izzy. He has been a great servant to the club but his time is up from what I have seen since he returned and it is time to move on.
