Kyogo in firm Celtic transfer response amid Tottenham link as striker has ONE thing in his head

Kyogo has blanked speculation linking him with a move to Tottenham Hotspur with old boss Ange Postecoglou after training with his hero Andres Iniesta.

The Scottish Premiership Player of the Year and Hoops talisman is back in his homeland for the summer and was a surprise guest along with Celtic teammate Yuki Kobayashi at his former club Vissel Kobe's public training session.

The Hoops pair went to meet former Barcelona icon Iniesta who will hang up his boots at the age of 39, with this weekend's game against Hokkaido Consadole Sapporo expected to be his final appearance. And Furuhashi was asked about the possibility of big-money move to Tottenham Hotspur to link up with ex gaffer Postecoglou in London.

He said: "No comment. The future will bring what the future brings. I am only thinking about doing my best for the club I belong to now. It was great to see Andres. I said to him that it had been a long time since I had seen him and the rest of the conversation is a secret! He is the man who gave me the confidence to play football.

"He taught me many other things, such as how to play the game and to have belief in myself and because of him, I went to Celtic and achieved results. I hope to improve my technique and grow even more. I want Andres to enjoy it until his final match. I think a lot of people will want to send him off in a good way. Hopefully, his last match will be a win for Kobe. I will be there to see it myself."
