2011/12 Yuki Otsu @ Mönchengladbach (GER) Thread [R]

And hopefully his performance at Hampden Park during the Olympics bodes well for future performances with Celtic

Seems the reports were just speculation.

As usual at this time of year Celtic have been linked with a host of players, the most recent being Japanese duo, Maya Yoshida and Yuki Otsu.
The 22-year-old Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder scored in the win over Spain in this summer's Olympics at Hampden while team mate Yoshida, 23, is a central defender currently with Dutch side VVV Venlo.
Lennon said: "He (Otsu) is a player we like but we will probably not do anything this window and we will keep tabs on him for now.
"We have been working away in the background for quite a while for three or four players but whether we get over the line with those players I don't know but I can't see us bringing anyone in before next Wednesday.
"I am aware of Yoshida, I watched him play for Japan against Spain and I liked the look of him but with regards us being interested or making an offer it is pure speculation at the minute."

Otsu's agent quoted here that his small number of club appearances might have been a problem to obtain a UK work permit.

 

Why japanese footballers always have to live this frustating situation to stay in a club that DON'T wanna use them? Transfer now and stop to waste your most important years of improvement!

 

Also today not even on the bench.
I can only ask this: why did they buy him in the first place? Favre was ALREADY the coach in Summer 2011, so why the hell did they buy him? To warm up the bench or - better than that - a sitting place in the stadium? Did they need an extra fan?

Dat Favre, what a dush.
He's losing. And i'm happy.

Edit: ******** they scored.

Not in the CL squad

 

Is he transfering or is it just totally out? Fkc this

 

Yeah? BEAUTIFUL

 

Marseille
Fenerbache
BM
AEL

 

Lol VVV is his new club.

 

this is interesting to say the least


So transfered and not loaned?

 

LOL that's strange. Hope they will kicked in the butt by some EL team with japanese player in the roster.

 

Loan?

Just Hasebe left now.

 

I'm glad he's moved where he can get enough playing time. I don't know what's going happen at VVV Venlo, but it's better than BM for Otsu.

btw, I think the chairman/director, CEO or whatever is an admirer of Japanese players or Japanophile. since Honda, they club always had a japanese players.

And just seem having a Japanese name on their roster is a good luck noting that they could stay afloat in Eredivise.

 

and good business as well they always sold them for more
