Ahead of Borussia Dortmund’s Champions League clash with Celtic, manager Nuri Sahin praised Kyogo Furuhashi for his intelligent and effective play. Sahin, who was asked about Celtic’s biggest threats, highlighted Kyogo’s off-ball movement and tactical awareness, emphasizing that he’s not a typical striker but one with exceptional timing and smart positioning. Furuhashi’s recent performances, including four goals in four games, further underscore his form, with Sahin particularly impressed by his recent brace in Celtic’s 6-0 victory over St Johnstone.
Despite Celtic’s impressive form and dominance in the league, Sahin stopped short of labeling them as underdogs. He acknowledged their unbeaten run and goal record in their domestic league, pointing out that they pose a considerable challenge, even in a European setting. Sahin also expressed his respect for Celtic’s coach Brendan Rodgers, a former colleague from his time at Liverpool.
Sahin’s remarks reflect both his respect for Celtic’s quality and the tactical challenge Dortmund will face in the upcoming match.
