Goalkeeper closes in on Celtic exit

Connor Hazard’s highly unusual Celtic career looks like ending tomorrow.

In nine seasons the international goalkeeper has made seven appearances and picked up one priceless medal.

Hampden in December 2020 was a far cry from last months Scottish Cup Final success against Inverness Caley Thistle but with saves from Stephen Kingsley and Craig Wighton Hazard delivered the final leg of the Quaruple Treble.

With Vasilis Barkas and Scott Bain unable to impress Neil Lennon handed Hazard his debut in the dead rubber Europa League tie at home to Lille.

Five weeks later the keeper played his last Celtic match, a 0-0 draw at home to Livingston when the squad had been decimated following the training trip to Dubai.

Last year Hazard had a successful loan spell with HJK Helsinki but that failed to alter his status at Celtic where he remained fourth choice.

Now at the age of 25 he is joining Plymouth who were promoted to The Championship at the end of last season.
