Dutch World Cup hopeful Edson Braafheid hopes life at Celtic can toughen him up

EDSON Braafheid feels that the hostile environment of Scottish football can toughen him up for the almighty battle he faces in order to earn a first-team place at Bayern Munich next season.

The Dutch left-back hasn’t ruled out making his loan move to Parkhead from the German giants permanent this summer, but his main ambition is to return to the Allianz Arena and prove his worth to his countryman Louis van Gaal.
