The nifty attacker has a handful of goals to his name for his country after success during the international break.
And the Celtic striker will be joined on the path by creative colleague Reo Hatate after the Parkhead star sparkled and set up his mate’s strike in their 2-0 win over Tunisia. Former Vissel Kobe ace Kyogo made a triumphant return to the city by hitting the opener for Hajime Moriyasu’s men as they extended their outstanding winning run to six games.
Kyogo is now aiming to return to Celtic and stay firmly on the goal trail for boss Brendan Rodgers as Japan prepare to start their World Cup bid. But both have continued to prove their worth since then and the attacker now intends to be involved when the qualifying campaign kicks off. Kyogo said: “I still have to grow so I want to go back to the club and do my best. We will continue to grow, both individually and as a team.”
