Former Celtic player, Frank McAvennie has challenged striker Odsonne Edouard to get himself back to goalscoring form if he wants to gain a big move away from the club in the summer.
As reported by Sun Sport, McAvennie said he wouldn’t be losing too much sleep over the fact the Frenchman has changed his agent this week but also challenged the 22-year old to get back to full form in order to win a move away to a big club or he won’t gain that.
“It doesn’t bother me too much that Edouard’s changed agents now. The one good thing is that to get a move you have to produce regularly on the park.
“Edouard back scoring goals every week would be great news for Celtic in the second half of the season. None of the players being talked about for big moves are going to get that with the way they are playing just now.
“Everyone at Celtic has got to seriously raise their game if the team’s going to somehow win a tenth title. Edouard’s a top player who can go to the highest level. I’ve got no doubts about that.“But he’s got to be doing the business on the park, and for one reason or another it’s not been a great season for him.”
This season we have seen Edouard struggle to hit full form, having glimpses of his usual magic but just not reaching the heights we have seen him reach in previous seasons.
There are no doubts how big a talent the France u21 star is and he has know shown that here and in his homeland with the international youth sides in France.
It will be an extremely tough task to drag ourselves back into this title race. However, if we want half a chance of doing that, getting Edouard back to that form will be crucial in doing that.
