Kasper Høgh has been given a timely show of support after a difficult start to life at Celtic.

Former Bodø/Glimt teammate Albert Grønbæk has backed the striker to find his form again after a slow opening few months in Glasgow.

Speaking to Danish outlet Tipsbladet during the international break, Grønbæk explained why leaving Bodø/Glimt can be a bigger adjustment than it may seem from the outside.

Grønbæk believes the environment at Bodø/Glimt is one of the reasons players can sometimes need time after moving on.

He described life at the club as “a big family” and said the relationships players build there are “very special”.

It is something Grønbæk knows well himself after making the move away from Bodø/Glimt.

He also remains close to Høgh and revealed that the pair still keep in regular contact.

Grønbæk said they speak every day and is confident Høgh will start scoring again once he finds his rhythm.

“I know that as soon as he starts scoring again, the goals will come.”

He also described Høgh as “incredibly tough and extremely talented” and praised the way he handles difficult moments.

The striker has not been called up by Denmark for the current international break, meaning he can stay in Glasgow and work with Celtic ahead of the return of club football.

For Martin O’Neill, getting Høgh firing would give him another important option in attack.

The pressure that comes with a big transfer fee will not disappear, but Grønbæk clearly believes his former teammate has the mentality and ability to turn things around.
