Explained in plain English

Why are wingers important?

A winger is a type of attacking player in football who typically plays on the sides of the pitch. Their main roles are to run with the ball, create scoring opportunities by crossing it into the penalty area, and sometimes score goals themselves. Haissem Hassan, as an Egyptian winger, would be expected to add pace and creativity to Celtic's attack.
