    If he can be as good as the other kris in our team I will be delighted. I know they are different types of player.

    No, not particularly. Average pace from what I've seen.

    Delighted to have got this guy! Hoping we can see him sooner rather than later. We've been crying out for a proper CDM for ages.

    How come we can sign him outside transfer window?

    Or is it a pre contract?

    KA: "First of all, a great honour to sign for this great club. Only 17-years-old and already achieved one of my dreams.

    KA on his role when he joins the squad: "I’m a full member of the A squad and I need to prove myself & develop.


    KA: "I’m a holding midfielder that likes to get on the ball and also win it back again.

    KA: "That’s what I did at Start & what I plan to do here. Have played almost 50 matches in the Norwegian league, felt I was ready.


    KA on prospect of working with Ronny Deila: “Ronny is a great manager back in Norway where he has won the Premiership.

    KA: "I can't wait to start at Celtic and develop as a player.

    KA: Ronny is a good manager and I will to prove to him I am good enough to play.

    KA: "I'm a holding midfielder so I have many role models such as Patrick Vieira, who was a great player in that position.


    KA: "But I know at Celtic we have holding midfielders that are very good & that I need to learn from, can't wait to train with them.

    KA: "I need to develop more as a player. Been at Start for two years and they have been great for me but felt ready to move forward.

    KA: "Coming here to play for one of the greatest clubs in the world is amazing and can't imagine how wonderful it will be to play.

    KA on if there was interest from elsewhere: "For the whole time Celtic has been my no.1 club and I wanted to come here.

    KA: "The trial was amazing. I met the staff and players and everyone took good care of me. I felt at home here.

    KA: “This is one of the biggest clubs in the world, a big difference from Start, but have to thank them a lot for sitting here today.


    KA: "I come here as 17-year-old from Norway & don't think many expect much but I expect much from myself, looking forward to this.


    KA on what's next: "Will take my driving test, finish my second grade at high school and help my team to do well, many things to do.

    KA: "I will keep my feet on the ground and keep developing.

    such an exciting signing for the team, seen bits of him for his club and played a fair bit of FM with him as well were he is also very highly rated i think we have landed a real steal here and im buzzing!

    Personally I hope he's no fat and overrated, but that's just me.

    Didn't Commons score or assist every single EL goal for us this season?

    I am very surprised he has not held out for a transfer to an English club. In addition Start would probably have gotten more money for him as well. He was the best talent they had at the club.

    Very astute signing by Celtic.

    So here's hoping he's not like you then and is like Kris Commons then.
