Celtic have confirmed their squad for the league phase of the UEFA Europa League, and the 25-man squad will include seven of the new players who have arrived at the club during the summer transfer window.

Camilo Duran, Mika Baur, Haissem Hassan and Kasper Høgh are joined by three of the latest signings in Oliver Sørensen, Jordan Lotomba and goalkeeper, Sam Johnstone.

Martin O’Neill’s side kick off their UEL league phase campaign with a home game against Hungarian side, Ferencvaros, on Thursday, September 17 (KO: 8pm).

The Celtic manager said: “There are obviously some very tough decisions to be made in putting this squad together for the Europa League.

“It’s a difficult list and, for me, the most important thing is our domestic football.

“Of course, we’re disappointed about the Champions League but the Europa League is still very strong, and we want to try and do as well as we possibly can in that, but the players we have signed, we want them to make a mark initially in the domestic scene, which is the most important thing for us at this stage.

“Then, we’ve got a chance to perhaps change things in February if we’re still in contention.”
