Reo Hatate, the Japanese international midfielder, scored his first goal for Burnley during their Championship match against Watford on Saturday. The 28-year-old had previously struggled for opportunities since his summer departure from Celtic. Hatate's goal came after just 25 minutes, extending Burnley's lead to three goals following strikes from Jacob Bruun Larsen and Zeki Amdouni.
He had previously provided an assist for Bruun Larsen, who scored just 13 minutes earlier. Hatate's transfer to Burnley on deadline day in September marked a significant improvement from his difficult start at Celtic, where he had contributed 144 minutes across his first four Championship appearances.
