Some Celtic fans have been left talking by the latest post that Christopher Jullien sent out on Twitter.
With the Premiership currently suspended, Jullien got fans talking by posting a throwback tweet. He said that as a boy, he was ‘dreaming’ of playing football. The tweet carried an image of him playing for his former club Auxerre and how the dreams of playing football came true.
Would you describe Jullien as a 'bargain' buy?
Not really
Of course, he's brilliant
Some Celtic fans hailed Jullien, while others said that they miss seeing him on the pitch for the Hoops.
Can you please FaceTime me I haven’t seen you in ages xx

Jullien joined Celtic from French club Toulouse for a fee of £7 million in what was the club’s second-most expensive signing in history.
Since joining, the Frenchman has become a regular for the Hoops at the back. He has made as many as 46 appearances in all competitions in the campaign. In 2020 alone, Jullien has scored three Premiership goals while also picking up one assist.
What do we think?
The comments seem to suggest that Jullien has struck up a special connection with Celtic fans. Considering he had scored the club’s winner in their League Cup final over Rangers, that was perhaps bound to happen.
