Celtic fans have taken to Twitter to react after it was revealed that Dedryck Boyata would be leaving the club, having signed a pre-contract agreement with Bundesliga side Hertha Berlin.

The Belgian international was allowed to leave after his contract expired at Celtic Park, and departs the club just one year after Fulham saw a £9m bid rejected for his services - in hindsight, not selling him then was a costly error.

Some fans are sad to see him go due to his quality as a defender, whilst others are glad to see the back of him after the whole debacle surrounding the Athens game.
