'I've kept an eye on Carl' - Abildgaardpublished at 23:47 British Summer Time 1 September 2022
New Celtic midfielder Oliver Abildgaard says a glowing endorsement from former Rubin Kazan team-mate Carl Starfelt helped his decision-making.
“This is a day I’ve been very much looking forward to ever since I heard the possibility of coming here," Abildgaard told Celtic's club website.
“I’ve been following the highlights recently, ever since I heard about the interest, and I’ve also been keeping my eye on Carl Starfelt as well ever since he moved here a year ago.
“He’s been amazed by the club ever since he came here, and the life in Glasgow as well. He’s enjoying it very much and he’s only told me good things about it.”
