Bolingoli has taken to social media to confirm that he is back at Celtic for the new season. The new manager Ange Postecoglou has already said that all players will start with a blank slate so he has an opportunity to earn his place under the Australian.
The player signed from Rapid Vienna in the Summer of 2019 for £2.5m. The player was offloaded on-loan to Turkish side Istanbul Basaksehir after breaking COVID-19 rules in Scotland. Bolingoli decided to go to Spain for one night and failed to quarantine when he returned. Greg Taylor was joined by AC Milan’s Diego Laxalt but it was evident that neither were good enough to hold down a starting place last season. However, with the need for a new left-back evident, Bolingoli could force himself into becoming the manager’s first pick.
Odsonne Edouard responded with the caption “Boli is back 🔥”. The French striker scored in the friendly win over Sheffield Wednesday but is widely expected to leave the club this summer with just one year left on his deal.
