Player Profile: #33 Beram Kayal

Name: Beram Kayal
Born: 2 May 1988 (Jadeidi, Israel)
Age: 22
Playing Position: CM
Celtic Squad Number: 33
Signed: 2010 from Maccabi Haifa (Israel)

In response to his exclusion from the player of the year shortlist, Shamrock and Thistle's first player profile is on Beram Kayal. Signed on a four-year deal as part of Lennon's massive revisions to the 2009/2010 squad, Kayal has been an integral part of the Celtic team in the 17 appearances (to date) he has made; however, the Israelite does most of his work "behind-the-scenes", so to speak, as he has only managed to find the net once. 

Although he has been excluded from the official player of the year shortlist, Kayal's contribution has been recognised in other ways, most notably being an SPL player of the month award for January 2011 and being awarded a captaincy for Celtic's 1-0 victory over Paisley side St. Mirren on 9th April 2011. His first goal in green and white hoops came just 3 days later, when he struck the ball past St. Johnstone's Graeme Smith. 

Beram Kayal looks to be a good player for Celtic Football Club so far; he has made great contributions that have affected the team both directly and indirectly and, all going well, should be looking to pick up a few more individual player awards.
