Celtic winger Liel Abada is the latest player within Ange Postecoglou’s squad gearing up for his pre-season return.
Having made his first competitive appearances for the Israeli senior national team in June, the 20-year-old was granted some extra time off during the summer.
With a small group of first-team players returning to Lennoxtown on Monday afternoon, the likes of Abada, Callum McGregor and the rest of the international Bhoys are expected to join the group later this week.
Ange Postecoglou’s squad will also step up their pre-season preparations next week when they travel to Austria.
However, several Celtic stars have been spotted putting in extra work before meeting up with the group at Lennoxtown once again.
Both Kyogo Furuhashi and Daizen Maeda have been training with some of their old clubs back in their homeland whilst spending the summer break in Japan.
After picking up an injury on international duty with Sweden, central defender Carl Starfelt has also posted videos of his recovery and early pre-season training.
Abada is the latest Celtic star to be putting in the work before heading back to Scotland, posting a short compilation of his training session on his Instagram story.
Celtic stars gearing up for another hectic season.
The 2021/22 campaign was an extremely busy year for Ange Postecoglou and his squad. However, this coming season might be even more hectic for the Hoops.
With the Qatar World Cup occurring later this year, fixtures have been pilled together. Celtic will have almost two fixtures a week every seven days, which has become the norm over the last few years.
When you consider that a number of the Bhoys’ midweek fixtures will be Champions League group stage matches, it is bound to be a tough few months ahead.
So, the pre-season preparations are incredibly important, and it is good to see several Celtic stars putting in the work to be ready for their return to training.
