Originally published at: Armstrong Okoflex latest: Interest from Italy ramps up for Celtic youngster - 67 Hail Hail
Multiple Italian clubs are interested in signing Celtic youngster Armstrong Okoflex, Tuttomercatoweb reports this week. The outlet believes Torino and Bologna have been showing consistent interest since last year. However, more interest from Serie A is now expected in the Republic of Ireland youth international. Okoflex has been a hyped-up talent ever since he joined…
Thoughts on this? Did you have high hopes for Okoflex getting Celtic appearances?
I have had high hopes for many up and coming youngsters. I have to say, what is the point of the academy because, if it was a business, you’d close it down. Pretty much zero return on investment, I would say.
It’s a frustration because when you consider the impact of Callum McGregor, James Forrest etc, we can do it.
But Mikey Johnston might be the only one over the last 3 or so years to get a chance?
They need to figure it out as there’s a bit of an exodus of talent right now.
