“Please get him back in the team” – Celtic fans BEG Brendan Rodgers to SIGN former player, and bring him back this summer, after he was SPOTTED during the Champions League game against RB Leipzig.

Celtic fans were thrilled to see former club favorite Victor Wanyama back at Celtic Park, attending their Champions League match against RB Leipzig. Wanyama, a key player for Celtic between 2011 and 2013, was welcomed with open arms as he reminisced about his time in Glasgow. The Kenyan midfielder, who had starred in Celtic’s famous 2012 win over Barcelona, spoke fondly of his memories at Parkhead in an interview with Celtic TV before the match. “This is one of the best stadiums I have ever played in,” Wanyama said, recalling the immense support of the fans. “The feeling is you want to give everything when you see the fans supporting you.”

Wanyama’s presence rekindled nostalgic feelings among fans, who took to social media to share their admiration for him. Many fans expressed their desire to see the powerhouse midfielder return to the squad. One fan wrote, “Get stripped, big man!” while others reminisced about his contributions to Celtic’s midfield. Wanyama’s time at Celtic saw him win back-to-back Premiership titles, and his physical and passionate style of play won him a special place in fans’ hearts.

The midfielder’s impact went beyond his on-field performances, as he was known for his sense of humor, particularly his memorable 2012 tweet, “I had spaghetti, it was very nice I enjoyed it,” which has become a beloved inside joke among Celtic supporters. During his return, fans joked that they hoped spaghetti was on the menu at Celtic Park in honor of Wanyama’s iconic tweet.

While Wanyama’s return was only as a spectator, his presence sparked conversations about the influence he had during his Celtic years and the desire of fans to see him or a similar player strengthen the club’s midfield. His return coincided with a pivotal Champions League night for Celtic under the guidance of manager Brendan Rodgers, as the team sought a significant win in front of a packed stadium.

Fans’ longing to see Wanyama back underscores the connection that former players can retain with clubs and supporters. Wanyama’s legacy at Celtic is not only marked by his talent and achievements but also by the rapport he built with the fans, who remember him as a symbol of strength and resilience in Celtic’s midfield lineup.
