Madcap 'Batshuayi for Kyogo' Celtic transfer theory leaves live radio studio in stitches

Kyogo might not be firing on all cylinders like he has in the past - but are there Celtic fans who would swap him for another striker out there? One like Michy Batshuayi...?

You'd think that would be a universal 'no,' but one radio caller left Simon Donnelly and Marvin Bartley in stitches with a madcap theory on Clyde 1 Superscoreboard.

And host Duncan then pointed to recent flop strikers like Albian Ajeti who have arrived for big fees and failed to hit the ground running.

So why is Kenny
