Brendan Rodgers has addressed the Celtic supporters with his first video message since returning to Parkhead.
The former Leicester boss agreed a three-year contract to return to Celtic to replace Ange Postecoglou.
And Rodgers has thanked supporters and club chiefs for welcoming him back to the club as he revealed his hopes to make the fans "dream again".
The Northern Irish manager will be unveiled officially tomorrow with a press conference at Celtic Park - but club social media posts shared the early message to fans.
In the short video message, Rodgers said: "Hi, it's Brendan here, I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank everyone for the support that I've had since I've been named the manager here again at Celtic.

"I'm very proud and very honoured to be given the opportunity and hopefully I can repay the faith or Dermot [Desmond] and the board for accepting me back to the club.
"But also, very, very importantly to you the supporters.
"Celtic Football Club is about the supporters and I hope that I can come back, make you very proud and also very importantly make you dream again.
"We did that in our first time together and now, hopefully going forward we can dream again.
"So I really look forward to it and look forward to being together as one from the very first day of the season; and let's make this a memorable season for us all.
"Take care. And Hail Hail."
