Bangura determined to overcome injury-plagued beginning to Celtic career

Mohamed Bangura is desperate to get back to full fitness after enduring a tough start to his time with Celtic.

The Sierra Leone striker has managed a total of 14 appearances so far this term with two of them being starts, mainly because of a recurring knee problem, but he is determined to overcome that to prove he is not a £2million flop.

"I know that I have not been playing as often as I wanted but this has been down to some injuries. I'm happy at Celtic and I want to fight for my place," the former AIK Stockholm man told the Daily Record.

"One of the problems for me is I am used to playing regular matches and I am not doing so at the moment.

"But I remain positive that I can win a place in the team and I am positive things will work out for me at Celtic.

"I believe it is just a matter of time before I'm fully fit and I start to play more regularly."
