5 things we spotted at Celtic training as Sead Haksabanovic fits in ahead of Champions League preparation

It has been another week of hard graft as Lennoxtown as the Celtic squad look to continue in their winning ways.

It is a trip to Tannadice for Ange Postecoglou and his men this weekend as they face Dundee United on Sunday. The Hoops will be hoping to maintain their 100 per cent league record after four victories out of four so far this season. On the other hand, United will be keen to throw a spanner in the works after a disappointing season both domestically and on their Europan travels so far this term. Jack Ross's side have just one point on the board as they welcome the champions to their home turf.

But it won't just be domestic duties dominating the thoughts around the training ground, with this week seeing Celtic find out who they will line up against as they make their return to the Champions League group stage. Here are some of the things Record Sport spotted as the Hoops got down the business this week...

The respect the Celtic players have for their boss is pretty evident both on and off the field. When Ange talks, they listen. And that was pretty evident as the boss issued instructions on the sidelines of the training pitch in Lennoxtown. The Postecoglou effect certainly worked well last season, and with four wins from four so far this term it looks like that positive push is continuing.

There is a huge task awaiting the Hoops shortly, however. After Thursday's Champions League draw, Celtic now know who they will have to trump if they want to secure their spot in the competition's last 16. The Hoops have been drawn against Real Madrid, RB Leipzig and Shakhtar Donetsk.

With some key additions to the side, the boss will be hoping his men are more than ready when their 2022/23 European adventure begins on
