Celtic Manager Rodgers Confirms Balikwisha Best on Left Wing

News summary

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has emphasized that Michel-Ange Balikwisha's best position is as a left winger, despite experimenting with him on the right flank to accommodate new signing Sebastian Tounekti. Balikwisha, who joined Celtic from Royal Antwerp, has displayed technical skill but appeared hesitant in his recent match against Kilmarnock, leading to him being substituted. Rodgers highlighted that Balikwisha has versatility, having played various offensive roles in his career, but insists that the left side is his natural and most effective position. The signing of Balikwisha was partly motivated by the anticipated departure of Daizen Maeda, which ultimately did not happen. Rodgers also addressed broader team matters, including the club's unity amidst media scrutiny, the potential for squad changes, and his respect for opponents and rival managers. He conveyed confidence in the ongoing development and cohesion of the team as they prepare for upcoming fixtures.
