Sebastian Tounekti has praised the arrival of Kasper Hogh from Bodo/Glimt, insisting that he plans to "feed" the striker in the box at Celtic.

Hogh became the second signing of the summer transfer window, joining Martin O'Neill's side from the Norwegian club for a record fee.

Speaking at Celtic Park, Tounekti, who spent two years at Hogh's previous club, is looking forward to teaming up with the 25-year-old forward. "You can expect a guy who knows how to score a goal. He will always be in the box," he said when asked about the striker. [STV]

I have played against him, but I have also watched a lot of Bodo/Glimt because I played there. He is always in the box and in the right spaces. I think it is important that we bring a player with quality and we’ve done that.

"He has proved that in Bodo/Glimt for many years now, but also in the Europa and Champions League."

On whether or not he is excited to play with Hogh, Tounekti continued, "100 per cent. I think as a winger, it is really nice to have people in the box that if you give them some balls, they will score.

"I think the other wingers, and I will try to feed him as much as possible. We are really looking forward to the season, because I think we can achieve amazing things."
