Worth A Fortune

Marc Antoine Fortune wants to continue learning from the likes of Robbie Keane, if Celtic can bring him back. Marc Antoine Fortune would love to play alongside Robbie Keane for Celtic again next season. He agrees with assistant coach Johan Mjallby that big-name signings are essential this summer if Celtic are to improve on last year's performances. Celtic are still working on persuading the Spurs striker to come back and add to his 12 goals in an impressive loan spell last term. Fortune felt the arrival of Keane in the second half of the season boosted his own form in what he admits was a difficult first season at Celtic and he now hopes a deal can be struck.He said: "Of course I would like to see him back here. Robbie is a star player and I really enjoyed playing with him and I think we did well together. I think the club has a lot of targets and we need players for the group. Robbie is a player who would be welcome. One player cannot make all the team, it's not one player who decides the issue of the season. It's the whole team, the whole group, and Robbie would be part of that group. If we all do well, we can do well this season. Of course, if we add good players it can only be good for Celtic. Celtic is a big club so they need big names." Fortune is confident he will have more to offer next season now that he has had 12 months to settle in Scotland. He said: "Personally, I know I have to score more goals than I did last year. I will work on it and try to do better than last year. First of all I will try to do more for me because I try to progress every year. Last year was a difficult year; this year is the year of Celtic. I learned a lot because I didn't know anything about Scottish football when I arrived. It's more difficult than everyone expects when they arrive. You have to fight every game and it's not easy. I'm ready to fight. Now I know it's a difficult league and I'm ready for it. I know the teams that I play against now. When I arrived, I didn't know teams like Falkirk but now I know the teams. I'm more confident and I'm ready now. My personality is that I am always relaxed. There is competition but it's good competition so I like that."
