Celtic’s Senior Soccer Academy Manager, Jose Romero, added: “We are delighted to announce our Premium Partnership with Football Futures.

“We look forward to engaging with them regularly throughout the next year. We will host various coach education events both online and in person which their coaches will be able to tap into.

“It will be fantastic to have some of their players and coaches visit us here in Glasgow, and have our coaches travel to Dubai to share expertise and methodologies which we have found to be successful with our players at Celtic.

“We are also keen to experience the excellent work that Football Futures are doing in Dubai. The partnership will be an exciting journey for both organisations.
