Kyogo Furuhashi’s post-Celtic nightmare continues with remarkable goalscoring statistic
Former Celtic striker Kyogo Furuhashi’s difficult spell away from Glasgow has continued after the Japanese international finished his first MLS campaign without scoring a single goal.
The 31-year-old’s LA Galaxy side missed out on the Western Conference play-offs following a 2-1 defeat to Real Salt Lake on Saturday night.
Galaxy finished the campaign on 44 points, just one behind their opponents, who secured the final play-off spot.
Kyogo was introduced in the 83rd minute following a recent injury absence but was unable to inspire a late comeback.
The former Hoops favourite ends his debut MLS campaign with no goals or assists from 12 appearances, extending a remarkable decline in his goalscoring fortunes since leaving Celtic in January 2025.
Across three clubs since his departure from Parkhead, Kyogo has managed just three competitive goals.
His brief spell at French side Rennes ended without a goal before he joined Birmingham City, where he scored three times in 31 appearances across all competitions.
A subsequent move to Los Angeles offered the Japanese forward another opportunity to rediscover his form, but his struggles have continued.
An injury sustained against St Louis City in October, which forced him off after just 11 minutes, further disrupted his attempts to establish himself.
Kyogo’s difficulties are a far cry from his prolific spell at Celtic, where he was a fan favourite through his clinical finishing and crucial goals against Rangers and in European competition.
