Toni Fruk: A Player Celtic Should Target
Toni Fruk, a player we should be targeting if we had any ambitions at all, is a talented playmaker who could be the key to Celtic's future success. We are in dire need of new faces to freshen up and strengthen our squad, and the centre forward area is just one of the areas that require urgent attention. However, several other areas are also in need of being bolstered or upgraded.
One such area is the centre of midfield, where a talented playmaker is required. A player who carries a genuine goal threat and would fill that void is Toni Fruk, a 24-year-old who plays for HNK Rijeka in his native Croatia. Fruk is a sublimely talented playmaker, technically gifted, and has a great eye for goal. He's a real star in the making.
Fruk has 11 goals and 2 assists in 30 appearances this campaign for Rijeka, and boasts an overall record of 30 goals and 31 assists in 118 appearances for his current club, proof of his undoubted ability. He has also made five appearances for his country, scoring one goal, and is destined for greater things.
Contracted to Rijeka until 2027, and rated at £9 million on transfer market, Fruk is well within our reach and a player who we should be going all out to add to our squad. We haven't had a central midfielder in the mould of Fruk since Tom Rogic, a player capable of sheer brilliance with the added ability of scoring goals from the middle of the park. Reo Hatate was once that player, but is entering his last days as a Celtic player.
It's time for some new blood, and Toni Fruk is in my view the perfect answer. If we had any ambition at all, we would ask the question and attempt to snare the player before he inevitably slips beyond our reach.
