Osaze Urhoghide embraces Celtic loan at Oostende as he delivers hilarious initiation sing song

Defender Osaze Urhoghide appears to be quickly adjusting to life away from Celtic after being snapped serenading his new teammates.

The centre-back joined in the summer from Sheffield Wednesday for a development fee but has made just one competitive appearance so far in his Parkhead career.

That came in the Europa League dead rubber against Real Betis.

Having struggled for regular game time under Ange Postecoglou, he has joined Belgian side Oostende on loan for the rest of the season in January.

And he has been made to feel at home straight away by his new teammates - despite having to give them a sing-song as part of the dressing room initiation.

The Oostende YouTube channel posted the clip of the centre-back belting out 'Oh, Happy Days' in front of his cheering teammates.

The 21-year-old explained to club media: "I hate this when joining a new team, but I sang 'Oh, Happy Days'.

"The guys joined in and in the end it wasn't too bad."

The Celtic kid also told his new supporters what they can expect from him ahead of his debut against Leuven.

"I am a no-nonsense defender, I'd like to get tight on the ball then tackling as well,

"I just really work hard for the team, doing what other people don't enjoy doing, so I'll be doing what others don't really enjoy. There will be a lot of hard work and tackling."
