New Celtic striker Hyeongyu Oh says arriving at the club feels like being on a movie set after making the switch from South Korea.

The 21-year old has arrived on a five-year deal from Suwon Bluewings after scoring 13 goals in the K-League last season.

Oh follows Alistair Johnston, Tomoki Iwata and Yuki Kobayashi through the door at Parkhead this month.

Speaking Celtic TV, Oh said: "I’m happy to be playing at one of the top clubs and I’m delighted that my dream has come true.

"I feel like I’m on a movie set and I’m really excited to be in the city and I’m looking forward to the upcoming days.

"This is the moment I have dreamed of and I’m really excited to perform in front of the fans at the stadium."

The move will add further speculation around the future of Giorgos Giakoumakis.

Postecoglou admitted the Greek striker was left out of their squad against Morton as he wasn't in the right mental state to play.

J-League side Urawa Red Diamonds and MLS outfit Atlanta United have both been heavily liked with him.
