Celtic fans, can you get 8/8 on this quiz on forgotten players? First up: who is this?

The report states that Herald and Times Sport understands Okoflex has travelled to London to finalise a deal that would see him join West Ham United this summer.

This post then gathered a lot of replies from a number of Celtic supporters who were not shy in sharing their thoughts on this latest update.

So, what did these Celtic fans have to say in response to this news about Okoflex?

“Lenny didn’t play him. It’s cost us.”

@benn_bin_mo

“Yet another young talent off loaded while we keep the dross no one else wants. Shocking”

@AirbusLupum

“We’re just letting good talent leave what is happening”

@thomascfc_

“And so it continues. Remember the definition of insanity”

@mwillmott68

“He hasn’t even been giving a chance man”

@JohnOHa25040471

“Never to be heard of again”

@traynorgerry7

Looking at the replies to this post, it seems that these Celtic fans are not happy with the prospect of seeing their club let Okoflex leave Parkhead for a move to West Ham this summer.

Are you disappointed by this news?

Yes

Yes

No

No

Given how the 19-year-old has only made two appearances for Celtic’s senior side since arriving from Arsenal’s U18 squad back in August 2018, it may make sense for Okoflex to move on from the club if he wasn’t likely to be getting regular playing time anytime soon.

If the winger gets assurances that he would have more chance of playing regularly at West Ham rather than at Celtic, then this would surely be a good move for his development and career, in our view.
