Hayato Inamura and Kieran Tierney spark Celtic's attacking evolution
We should always be wary of reading too much into friendlies, especially those like in the case of Celtic's 4-0 win over Newcastle United where one side is significantly further into their pre-season preparations. Nonetheless, even allowing for the inevitable disparity in conditioning between them and their Premier League opponents, there were insights to be gleaned as to how the Scottish champions may plan to attack the sterner tests ahead. Last year, even as Brendan Rodgers' team won another double, came within a penalty shootout of adding the Scottish Cup and made a decent impression in the Champions League, they often faced supporter frustration for the sluggishness of their build-up play and the apparent prioritising of possession over penetration. It could appear an odd charge in the context of a Premiership campaign that brought 112 Celtic goals, but Rodgers himself had acknowledged a desire to add more attacking options even before Nicolas Kühn's move to Como followed the January departure of Kyogo Furuhashi.

Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano reports on X that both clubs - and the player - are agreed on a £16.3m deal to take the player to Italy, with all that remains a medical. While his former club Rapid Vienna are believed to take a small percentage of the profit on the deal, it still means a tidy mark up for the player. Romano said: "Como agree deal to sign Celtic forward Nicolas Kühn on permanent move. "Understand transfer fee will be €19m with medical tests to follow, personal terms also agreed in principle.

Celtic retain treble focus by fighting back to beat Hibs
Celtic continue to meet the standards being relentlessly set for them by Brendan Rodgers as he seeks to ensure there is no let-up in their performance levels with another treble on the horizon. There was certainly no sense of his Scottish champions simply going through the motions here as they came from behind to secure an ultimately commanding victory. After Martin Boyle had given Hibs the lead, Celtic's response was everything Rodgers wanted as goals from Nicolas Kühn, Adam Idah and Reo Hatate took their Premiership tally for the campaign to 106. It equals the mark they set in 2016-17, Rodgers' first season at the club when his 'Invincibles' remained undefeated in all domestic competitions and claimed the first of the two trebles he has
