Alexandro Bernabei

Reckon he will be a cracking signing for us

 

Hmmm you just never know with these accounts. #25 was more than likely going to be his number, informed or informed guess? Said Souza was on the clock… but we could all guess that with the information McGrory has provided.

That said, he’s probably getting some information.

 

Agree on the winger assessment of Bernabei. Although Christie was good when played as a left winger. Right side absolutely doesn't suit him.

 

Na na na na na na na na na na naaa
Alex Bernabei, Bernabei
Alex Bernabei!

 

Delighted welcome Amigo

 

Never heard of him but he looks like being, another, good addition.

 

Alexandro Bernabei didn’t need much convincing when he heard that Celtic were interested in his signature.

Despite living more than 7,000 miles away from Celtic Park, the 21-year-old Argentinian left-back knows all about the club and the atmosphere that Paradise can create.

Having signed a five-year contract from Lanus in Argentina’s top flight, Bernabei becomes the first player from his homeland to pull on the green and white Hoops.

Joining a team that lifted the Scottish Premiership title and League Cup last season, he can’t wait to get started as he looks to add to the trophy success under Ange Postecoglou and also compete in the UEFA Champions League.




Speaking today at Celtic Park, the new Bhoy said: “Celtic are the champions and it’s a club that’s used to winning, so that’s the main reason I was interested in signing.

“My first thought when I heard there was interest was one of hope - hope that it would come to fruition as I really wanted to play for this club.

“I didn’t have to speak to anyone else about the transfer, I had already made up my mind regardless.

'I really want to become champions again with Celtic and try and win as much as we can. Then after that, I want to enjoy all the years that are to come at this club.'

“The Champions League is exciting as it’s one of the most important competitions in the world and we will give our all in it for Celtic.

“It’s a huge competition, so for me it’s unbelievable to come from a small town in Correa to play in this.”

Playing in Europe’s top competition was something that excited the player, but having heard stories of Celtic back in Argentina, Bernabei was keen to get over to Glasgow and experience the Paradise atmosphere.

Moving from Argentina means leaving his family behind, but he says it’s all worth it to make the move of his dreams.

He added: “It was a dream of mine to come and play in Europe. I’ve come to a huge club like Celtic so I didn’t think twice and family and friends did not become an issue for me.

'From what I’ve seen and heard, there’s 60,000 people in that stadium so I can’t wait to feel that adrenaline and atmosphere and to play in front of those fans.'

“I spoke to the manager before signing and he made me feel very comfortable, so I’m grateful to him and the club. The playing style is very aggressive, offensive and attacking and it’s one that I like and I think I will grow as a player.

“I think the fans will see a player that’s aggressive and has a lot of personality and will give his all for the team and give his all for the Celtic jersey.”

 

What absolute helmet asked the question around 2:22?

 

Welcome. Didn't know anything about him but if the manager has seen fit to bring him here, can't wait to see what he can do.

 

Cheers! I need it due to my deafness and there were no options to switch subtitles on YouTube. HH

Been long overdue a top class left back since KT. Hopefully the wee man is that

 

This guy is gonna run riot

 

He already seems to love being here. Keeps thanking the club for coming in for him and generally seems a very polite young man.

Welcome Alexandro

 

His highlight reels look good, hopefully he lives up to the initial hype.
