Charlie Adam is convinced Bosun Lawal is a star in the making for Celtic.


The youngster is on loan at Fleetwood Town for the campaign after originally joining last summer under former boss and now Ayr United gaffer Scott Brown. The legendary Hoops skipper raided his old club to bring in the 20-year-old to the Cod Army and he's established himself as a key player ever since under former Hibs boss Lee Johnson and now new manager Adam.


The former Rangers and Liverpool star has waxed lyrical over his loanee and believes the skill and talent he has in his locker can hardly be found in England's second tier never mind League One where he his plying his trade at this moment in time. He's featured in nearly 30 games in all competitions this season as he continues to pick up vital first-team experience before returning to Parkhead in the summer.

Adam explained: "Unfortunately, Bosun is not our player but while he is here, he is our player and what he has done since he has been here is give us a good base in terms of his size and physicality.

“How he dribbles with the ball, his touches and passes. There are not many midfielders like that in the Championship in England let alone League One. So he has got a bright future. He is at a big football club in Celtic. We are lucky to have him here at Fleetwood and in the coming months to the end of the season we will send a better player back than when he came in here.”
