Celtic could land dream Kurzawa alternative with late move for £3.2k-p/w assist king – opinion

to strengthen the roster before it closes.

the Hoops are eager to sign a new central midfield player.

The story goes on to say that in addition to moving for Adam Idah on loan from Norwich,

the Scottish powerhouses also seek another left-back alternative.

The article also notes that Harrison Burrows, a full-back for Peterborough United, has been mentioned as a

The French left-back from Ligue 1 winner Paris Saint-Germain is reportedly interested in joining the Hoops,

according to a report from Sky Sports earlier today.

But Kurzawa is supposedly paid £89k a week, and given his history of injuries and recent performance, it seems unlikely that he would

be worth such a large financial commitment.

The 31-year-old defender has only played eight matches, for PSG and Fulham combined, in all competitions since the start of the

2021/22 campaign, with one assist in those games.

Kurzawa, who has played eight minutes of competitive football this season, last made frequent appearances for PSG in Ligue 1 during

the 2020–21 campaign, when he produced one assist and 0.5 crucial passes per game.

Therefore, if Celtic signed Kurzawa, they would be buying a high-paid, underperforming, senior defender who hasn’t played regularly

in a while to improve his match fitness.

Instead, the Hoops ought to make a late move to sign Burrows, a youthful, energetic, and aggressive left-back who has made frequent

appearances for Peterborough this season.

The 22-year-old gem would have a better chance of starting right away because he wouldn’t need to regain match sharpness after

missing three starts in the EFL Trophy for the English team and 28 starts in League One for the Posh.

The English wizard, who is rumored to be worth £3.2k per week, might also be less expensive than Kurzawa while yet being able to

provide more for the Bhoys on the field.

As said above, Burrows has given his team in the third division of English football an exceptional amount of inventiveness this season.

He may have a legitimate reason to be angry with his teammates because he consistently creates excellent opportunities, and out of the

12 “big chances” that his passes and crosses have resulted in, they have only managed to score eight goals.

However, Burrows leads all current Celtic full-backs in assists with seven, as none of them have recorded more than one in the Scottish

Premiership this season for Brendan Rodgers’ team.

In 22 top-flight games, Greg Taylor has generated seven “big chances” and one assist, indicating that Burrows may provide more as an

attacking threat down that flank if he can adjust to Scottish football.

At face value, the Peterborough assist king seems like a fascinating potential, and Celtic should try to pursue a deal for his services as a

fantastic option to Kurzawa, regardless of whether they are actively interested in him at the moment.
