Former Eredivisie top scorer Giorgos Giakoumakis is loose in Scotland: ‘He is now being rewarded’ | Football

sport">Until Sunday, Giakoumakis had only scored two goals in the Scottish Premier League. Trainer Ange Postecoglou was therefore happy for the Greek, who scored 26 Eredivisie goals for VVV-Venlo last season. “He worked very hard and had a lot of bad luck finishing. As with all strikers, that reward comes at some point. He got it today because he continued to do the right things.”

sport">The striker himself was delighted with his first hat-trick. “It was amazing. I was really looking forward to scoring for this club, I’ve really missed that lately. But the most important thing is that we won and increased our lead in the competition.”

sport">Celtic did not become national champions last season – after nine titles in a row. According to Giakoumakis, the title will return to Celtic Park this season. “We are going to be champions. We have the best squad in the competition.”
