Club record Hogh a 'snip' for Celtic - Hartley

Former Celtic midfielder Paul Hartley thinks the Scottish champions splashing out a club-record fee on Kasper Hogh could prove to be a bargain. The 25-year-old Denmark striker, who fired in a goal every other game for Bodo/Glimt, has signed a four-year contract with Martin O'Neill's side. Hartley has also tipped him as an early favourtie to finish as the top scorer in the Scottish Premiership given his previous pedigree for big goals. Hogh's arrival followed the signing of Colombian forward Camilo Duran, with both new additions finding the net five times in the Champions League last season. "I like the quality. Kasper Hogh, I think he's going to be a top player. I think he's going to be a snip at 11 million quid," Hartley, who played for Celtic between 2007 and 2009, said. "If you look at his record, Champions League record, who he scored against, I think he'll be a brilliant signing for them. "I just think you look at his goalscoring record, but he's played, he's scored at the highest level. "That's not easy to do. He scored against Manchester City, scored against Atletico Madrid. Big Champions League games and also his league record. "I think Celtic have got a brilliant signing on their hands. "It wouldn't surprise me if he finishes top goalscorer."
