    Reckon his time is up, had a few opportunities, never really took them, should punt.
    Not going to cut it, is he?

    I agree with the posts above. Ajeti is a good footballer but the way he plays does not suit Celtic under Ange Postecoglou. I think there are enough options in the final third to let him go. I think Celtic’s weakness is depth in midfield. I think that needs to be sorted before adding players elsewhere on the pitch.

    Celtic will look to ship flop Albian Ajeti out of the door at Parkhead in January to help Ange Postecoglou continue his rebuild.

    On the latest edition of the Record Celtic podcast, Record Sport writer Scott Burns outlined his firm belief the striker will be shipped out.




    The Swiss International was a £4.5million signing from West Ham last summer and penned a four-year deal at the Hoops.

    But despite an impressive start in terms of his goals return at the start of last season - five in his first 10 games - he has failed to deliver.

    He has scored three times this season but doesn’t appear to fit Postecoglou’s style and they will look to offload him in January with Daizen Maeda targeted from the Celtic gaffer’s former club Yokohama F. Marinos.



    Record Sport writer Burns said on the podcast: “Maeda is another player Ange Postecoglou knows well and if he comes in, which is likely, or another striker then January will be a time for Albian Ajeti to go out the door.


    He hasn't featured as much of late. He played and scored a few goals but doesn’t look to be Ange’s cup of tea and he’s one of the big earners.


    He’s a goalscorer but doesn’t have that movement to pierce the lines.


    I would suspect if Celtic could do a deal they’d be looking to get him out to free up the space for new signings

    “There will be two or three others that come in. I know he’s looking strongly at the English market and he can now get eyes on his own British-style targets as well as the Japanese market which he obviously knows well.”

    One of those American teams might be daft enough to take him. We managed to get a few quid for Polish Paddy and wee Morgan.

    Don't think he'll be that hard to move on tbh, he's not Barkas, had a good scoring record at Basel and a decent enough start for us last season scoring a few on very limited minutes. Doesn't suit the way we're playing now at all but he'll get goals in a different setup, and he's only 24 so it's not like he's past it.

    Decent goalscorer but not enough energy and hustle

    We signed him over Toney :43:

    At the time I was hopeful he'd be good.

    But it's just not going to work out. Another £5M wasted.

    Just hasn't worked out for him here which is a shame as he came in and had a decent start. Would still score goals for us given an opportunity, but doesn't offer enough outside the box.

    If we can sell him in January we should. Not really much more to it than that.

    Obvious square peg in a round hole scenario, hopefully any suitors can see that too and we get a fair price for him

    Won't slag the boy off. Started well but was never going to work out for him this season with the way Ange plays. Hope he gets a decent move somewhere and kicks on from there. Reckon he can be a top goalscorer if he gets the right service.
