Ghana versatile player, Jeffery Schlupp, has set sights on helping Celtic to triumph over giants, Bayern Munich, in the Champions League playoffs.

The Scottish giants will battle the German outfit for a slot in round 16 of the UEFA elite competition after failing to snatch automatic qualification to the knockout stage.

However, Schlupp, who secured a last-minute move to Celtic in the recently concluded January transfer window insists his outfit will do everything possible to progress ahead of their opponent.

“I’ve watched the other Champions League games and the boys have performed so well in it,” he said.

“To be able to get a draw like Bayern Munich is very exciting for the fans and everyone involved with the club but, again, it’s a game that we’re obviously going to go and try to win.

“As much as enjoying the experience, it’s a game that we want to win and try to get through the play-offs.

The 32-year-old versatile Ghanaian player signed a deal to join the Scottish giants on loan till the end of the season from Crystal Palace.

The former Leicester City marksman is expected to play a huge role for the club as they battle to defend the Premier League title and also make an impact in Europe.
