Edouard’s brace against the Swiss Under-21s meant that he has shattered former Celt Moussa Dembele’s goalscoring record for the French Under-21s side. He has now scored 15 goals for the team (As per the Daily Record).
In the current campaign for Celtic, Edouard has played eight Premiership games and he has scored four goals. Having said that, three of those goals came in the hat-trick that he had scored against Hamilton in the first game of the campaign (as per Transfermarkt).
Some other Celtic fans also began talking about the update involving Edouard.
Plays harder for them than he does us atm.

Do you think Edouard will return to form for Celtic?
Yes
No
These Celtic fans are urging Edouard to perform at a similar level in the club’s upcoming Premiership game against Hibernian.
Edouard’s last Premiership goal came back in September against Ross County and that goal came from the penalty spot. So Edouard is yet to score from open play since his hat-trick against Hamilton. He is yet to score a single goal in the group stages of the Europa League.
This suggests that the Frenchman wasn’t exactly playing at his best for Celtic before the international break and since the Hoops are nine points behind the Gers in the Premiership table, it is understandable why fans want Edouard to come back to form and score some goals.
