The Scottish club reached agreement with Groningen in 2013 on the purchase of defenders Van Diak, with the total operation costing about 2m euros.
But as soon as the Dutch started taking their first steps in Scotland, Coach Lennon knew he was going to leave because he had a lot of potential to be part of Celtic, Periscope reports.
” I was really surprised because no one came to ask him about it in Celtic”, 47-year-old said.
And after one day after training, I said: “look, you won't be here long. Enjoy it.
He was so good, I couldn't believe the fate we got from Groningen for just 2 million euros.
“Speed, great physics, technique and excellent skill with the head [defansive-offsives]”, Lennon said. /Periscopi/
