Celtic captain Callum McGregor returned to training with some of his first team colleagues on Friday. The Scottish Champions got back to work ahead of the new campaign as Brendan Rodgers’ side look to continue their domestic dominance.

Speaking to Celtic TV, the skipper admitted that he was eager to get back to training and get back for the new season.

“Yeah, obviously it’s been a long summer. Longer than what I am used to anyway. But over the last few days, you are just eager to get back in and get back on it.

“You always have that excitement about what a new season can bring, with the opportunities and possibilities.

“So, it’s nice to get away, refresh and take stock a little bit. Once you drive through the gate this morning, you are back to work, and the serious stuff starts now. So, we’re looking forward to it!”

Ross Doohan was back in Celtic colours after returning to the club. Kieran Tierney and Benjamin Nygren were not in attendance as the internationals were given slightly longer to recover and prepare for the new season.
