Celtic have made a lot of successful signings over the years, and a number of very forgettable ones. For every Henrik Larsson and Danny McGrain you get players like Amido Balde and Steven Mouyokolo.
Those two are just a few of the names we’ve identified as some of the easily forgotten pieces of transfer business conducted by the Parkhead club over the last two decades that you might not remember very well.
Not everyone on this list is a bad player. However, not every player is a perfect fit for the club they join and the vast majority of Celtic fans might struggle to recall several of the signings we have put together.
While current manager Ange Postecoglou boasts a stellar signing record having unearthed a number of gems, particuarly from the Asian market, his predecessors Neil Lennon, Ronny Deila and Brendan Rodgers oversaw their fair share of shocking additions.
Here, GlasgowWorld pick out 20 players that played for Celtic that you perhaps forgot even pulled on the green and white shirt...
1. 20 signings you’ve forgotten played for Celtic over the last two decades
2. Mubarak Wakaso - Midfielder
The pacy on-loan Rubin Kazan winger hit the ground running with a debut goal away to Red Bull Salzburg in the Europa League group stages in 2014 and had Celtic fans waxing lyrical, but it proved to be his only highlight. Could never reach the heights expected of him and quickly fell down the pecking order. His spell came to a quiet end.
3. Oliver Kapo - Midfielder
Joined Celtic on a free transfer in November 2010 and had been effectively thrown a career lifeline by Neil Lennon after his big-money move to Wigan ended disastrously. The former Juventus star was given number 77 jersey, but no sooner had he arrived in Glasgow’s east end on an initial three-month loan deal, he was shown the door after a bitter contract dispute. Made just two starts.
4. Pawel Brozek - Striker
Initially wanted by Rangers, The Polish forward ended up on the other side of Glasgow in January 2012. Was a prolific goal scorer in his homeland with Wisla Krakow but struggled to find his shooting boots in Scotland though during an unconvincing loan stint from Turkish outfit Trabzonspor. Started just once, coming off the bench on two further occasions as he failed to nail down a regular starting place.
