Tomas Cvancara is the man who Celtic are hoping can fire them to the league title.
Cvancara joined on loan for the season from Bundesliga club Borussia Mochengladbach, but he will have no time to settle in.
The 25-year-old is here to answer the Hoops’ striking problems and Martin O’Neill has hinted that he could start the new forward against Hearts on Sunday.
In his first interview with the club, Cvancara endeared himself to supporters by calling the Bhoys one of the biggest clubs in the world.
That doesn’t take away from the pressure he is facing, but the striker is confident he can handle it.

Having already made one big career move so far, this time will be an opportunity for Cvancara to show people what he is made of.
A Czech football expert said that Cvancara is a physical presence and the man himself believes he can stand up to the task and score the goals needed.
He told the press: Yeah, it’s a massive club so obviously it’s a big pressure but, as I said, I feel ready.
