Islam Feruz

[Kieran. 6,317]

From what I've heard, Celtic fans had singled Islam out to be a future star and had been paying attention to his progress for years. They must be gutted.

From what I've seen on twitter, they are.

Welcome aboard.

So...is he Muslim?

[Waterfall 893]

Harsh for Celtic fans, but welcome anyway!

[teignman 441]

A win-win from my standpoint. Takes a promising young player from smeltic and gives us a prospect with pace and ability that can play Striker or AM.

Islam Shouldn't it be Muslim Feruz?

Because Islam is the actual religion, you don't see Christian parents naming their son 'Christianity'.

I would assume. He isn't the only Muslim on the team. Anelka is one.

[Feroze 487]

Love his name!

If he is a somali-born, then he is most certainly muslim. Somalia is a muslim country.

No, that shouldn't be.

Because, 'Christianity' means nothing. At the contrary, in arabe the word 'islam' has a meaning : 'submission to Allah/God'.

Tommy Burns worked really hard to stop Islam Feruz and his family get deported back to Somalia. He is a great talent and it would be a shame to see him vanish into the crowd at Chelsea.

So many young talented players do well for Chelsea youth but where do they go ? It would be far better for him to stay at Celtic until he gets some reputation. Pay some respect to Burns, if it wasn't for him you and your family wouldn't even be in the country.

I hope this news is fake. Also he is a Man Utd fan.

Why wouldn't he do well at Chelsea academy?

Celtic have a very good youth team. Celtic beat Liverpool youth 3-1 last November with that Raheem Sterling that you's seem to be raving about. Celtic won 3-1 Raheem Sterling looked good but Filip Twardzik did better. He is starting to push for a first team spot and is only 17.

Celtic are also in the Next Gen Series like a UCL for youth players. Celtic are with Barcelona, Manchester City and Marseille.

Daniel Sturridge has shown that it's much better for development and reputation to get a game every week for a smaller team that sit on the bench or in the stands for a bigger team.

The only reason Chelsea would be good for him is cash, supposedly getting a house and £2.5k a week which he doesn't deserve yet.

From what I have heard Next Generation isn't really that good. Many teams have withdrawn.

First, who on here, or what Chelsea fan for that matter, raves about Raheem Sterling? Second, Chelsea is good for him not only monetarily, but for his development. He has a chance to develop at a better academy and play with/against a higher level of players.

@Gaffney : Don't be daft. You know exactly how big clubs work. Celtic is a relatively big club as well and have on numerous occasions in the past poached exploited legal loopholes to land youngsters.

I was talking about England, he was playing well for the English youths and everyone was saying he's the new so and so. Play against a higher level of player, where is the evidence that it's good ?

Brazil have some of the best youth players in the world but they don't play with the best players in the world. What does make a good player is the natural skill, coaching and the opportunity to step up. At Chelsea your chance to step up is very limited at the moment. You really want first team football by about 20. In Brazil it's very easy for youth players to break through.

How many times has Chelsea won the UEFA Champions league ? None, Celtic have so your team is garbage.

Don't rant about how good Chelsea are because it's not your team it's Roman's team. The fans make a club.
