Celtic captain Callum McGregor hailed the club’s early summer transfer business as he prepared for their pre-season bonding session in Austria. The Scottish champions jetted off with two of their key title-winning squad, Cameron Carter-Vickers and Jota, signed on permanent deals following impressive loan campaigns.
Argentinian left-back Alexandro Bernabei and former Dundee United goalkeeper Benjamin Siegrist have also bolstered Ange Postecoglou’s squad ahead of a season in which Celtic return to the Champions League group stages following a four-year absence.
McGregor said: “I know the manager was really keen on getting the boys here from last year and having spoken to them over the summer, they were desperate to come back.
It’s a huge club and the boys are buzzing to be part of it. “The club have done their business early and hopefully we can add one or two more faces as well, which would be great.” Celtic take on Wiener Viktoria on Wednesday before facing Rapid Vienna three days later and Banik Ostrava the following Wednesday.
