Odsonne Edouard bites back at Celtic hero Frank McAvennie's claim

Odsonne Edouard has responded to Frank McAvennie's claim he looks disinterested at Celtic.

The Frenchman was subject to critcism from the Hoops hero for his performances in pre-season.

McAvennie said: "They are still talking about Edouard going. It is incredible.

“When I watched Edouard the other day he looked a wee bit disinterested. Like he did not want to be there.

“Maybe he is just a big game player and he is just getting the minutes in. Maybe he needs crowds.

“I would watch this space with Edouard. Everybody has a price. If somebody offers above their valuation you have got to take it.

“I have not seen enough from Edouard in pre-season.

"I know it is just pre-season but I have not seen anything that suggests that he is up for this. This is a massive season.”

But the forward showed he was back to his brilliant best as he scored a hat-trick for the Hoops in dominant win to open the Premiership season.

And Edouard responsed to McAvennie's claim in perfect fashion.

He said: "Edouard doesn't look interested" with three football emojis to signify his hat-trick performance against Hamilton.
