Celtic fans react to Klimala being given number 11 shirt

Scottish champions Celtic announced the signing of Polish striker Patryk Klimala on Tuesday.

The 21-year-old has joined the Hoops on a four-and-a-half-year contract and commenced training with the squad today.

The club announced that his new shirt number for the club would be 11, and that has upset some of the fan base after Scott Sinclair only just vacated the number.

Sinclair only just completed his move to Championship side Preston North End one week ago and his previous shirt number has already been taken.

We feel that the club could maybe have handed Klimala a different number for the time being before giving him the number 11, and that is a popular opinion as proven by the reaction of these fans.

I feel it just seems a bit too soon, especially as Sinclair was such a crucial part of the club’s recent success.
