Supporters of Scottish giants Celtic have taken to social media in numbers on Thursday, to confirm their delight with a star member of the club’s attacking ranks putting pen to paper on fresh terms.
The player in question? Daizen Maeda.
The subject of contract renewals has taken its place front and centre in the headlines on the green half of the Glasgow divide across the week to date.
This comes, first, after Kyogo Furuhashi shut down any and all speculation surrounding his plans for next season by way of a new four-year contract at Parkhead:
🙆♂️ #KYOGO2027 🙆♂️
We are delighted to announce that our Treble-Winning talisman, @Kyogo_Furuhashi has signed a new four-year deal with the Club! 💚🇯🇵#CelticFC🍀

And now, just days later, the Japanese international has been followed in doing so by aforementioned compatriot Daizen Maeda.
As per a statement across Celtic’s official website and social media platforms:
⚡ #DAIZEN2027 ⚡
We are very happy to announce that our Treble-Winning winger, Daizen Maeda has signed a new four-year deal with the Club! 🇯🇵💚#CelticFC🍀@M_daizen_1020

And, safe to say, the Hoops faithful are not only happy, but absolutely overjoyed with the news:
Sensational. Fully deserved. Shame on those fans who went out their way to slaughter this man every time he drew breath.

One of the guys that can get taken for granted a bit but he was always in the team if fit , does vital graft . Great player ☘️🖤

A other one who gets our club and doesn’t jump at the first site of a ‘better’ offer.
Well in Daizen, we go again 🍀

Great news, real statement of intent from both club & player.
Really looking forward to seeing all our current players games being raised a level or 2 level under Brendan’s coaching 💪🍀.
