The 23-year-old signed for Celtic from Barcelona in 2008, and made 52 appearances for the Hoops, scoring one goal – a spectacular effort in a 7-0 victory over St Mirren at Celtic Park.
A popular player with everyone at the club and, indeed, the wider Celtic Family, Marc Crosas moves to Russia with everyone’s best wishes for his future career.
And playing for Celtic has made a deep impact on Marc. He contacted the official Celtic website and asked that we publish the following farewell letter to his friends, team-mates and the Celtic support.
Dear All,
After three years in Glasgow it's time to say goodbye. And it's hard. As a football player, all I want is to play and now it's time for me to move to another club and another league. Everything here at Celtic is fantastic, but another club is calling me with the possibility to have the minutes that I need. My job is to play football, and as much as I love this club, I need to play.
Over the last three years I have learnt a lot of things. Now I can say that I’m one of the lucky Bhoys to have played at Paradise in the green and white shirt. Being a part of the Celtic family has been great and Celtic will always remain in my heart.
After my time here I have came to understand why the Celtic supporters are well known all around the world and why this club is so special. There will always be a big space for all my fantastic memories here, the good moments when I was playing and even the bad ones. Marc Crosas is moving to another place, but a big part of his heart will remain here.
I would love to thank everyone who made me feel at home here – the staff, players and fans. I leave a lot of friends here. Real friends! I believe in this team, I believe in this club and I wish that at the end of the season every Celtic fan on earth will be proud of Lenny, Thommo, Johan, Garry and all my team-mates.
Hail! Hail!
Marc
