SAINTS winger Mohamed Elyounoussi sent his thanks to loan club Celtic and added: “I wish everyone all the best in the future.” The Norwegian international took to Instagram on Wednesday to thank the Glasgow giants following the expiration of his loan stay at Celtic Park. Across two seasons, Elyounoussi played 67 games and scored 24 goals. He also won the Scottish title in 2020. A post from the 26-year-old’s official Instagram page read: “I would like to thank everyone at @celticfc for the two seasons I was there.
Mohamed Elyounoussi said: “Thanks to all the coaching & background staff, the players and everyone who is working at this historic club. I have shared dressing room with a fantastic group of players and made friends for life. It has been a pleasure and honour to wear the iconic green and white shirt. I’ll take all the good memories with me both domestically and in Europe. Lastly, I want to thank the amazing fans that has been supporting and cheering me since the day I arrived. You have made every game both at the incredible Celtic Park and away games joyful. We missed you last season and I hope for the boys that you are back next season. I wish everyone all the best in the future.”
Elyounoussi joined Saints from Basel in June 2018 for a reported £16million, signing a five-year deal at St Mary’s. He has played 19 games in total for Saints, eight of those appearances coming under manager Ralph Hasenhuttl.
