new trio speak on the huddle online

Gregor Kyle
THE Huddle Online welcomes three new arrivals tonight (Friday, July 30), with our final pre-season special featuring exclusive interviews with Efrain Juarez, Gary Hooper and Beram Kayal.

We caught up with all three of the new Bhoys to get their view of the challenges that lie ahead and found out about their careers and past achievements.

Both Beram and Efrain were keen to do as much of their interviews as possible in English and both explained that they know ‘the History’ and are determined to play their part as soon as possible.

“I am very pleased and very excited, for me it’s a dream come true,” explained Israeli internationalist, Beram.

“As a kid I remember sitting with my parents and watching the Celtic games at home when Eyal Berkovic was a player here.

“The games were live in Israel and to see myself in the uniform of Celtic now is a big thing and I can’t wait to start playing for the team, for the manager and for the supporters.”

Efrain was of a similar mind and before arriving in Glasgow, the midfielder spent time learning about the club. “I feel very good, very excited and very happy and I am looking forward to the start of the season and the chance to repay the trust of the club.

“I chose Celtic because it was a big club, a historic club. It has a big story and in ’67 they won the Champions League, the league and cups, it’s a fantastic history and this is a very important club in the world.”

Also on tonight’s show, we hear from Gary Hooper following the whirlwind start to his Celtic career.

We also have a look at the main news stories and reveal the winner of our competition to win one of Artur Boruc’s signed boots.

And we have our report from Lincoln and an interview with a true Celtic great ahead of last weekend’s Celtic XI clash.
