Celtic announce Austria pre-season trip as Norwich and Blackburn friendlies confirmed

Celtic announce Austria pre-season trip as first friendlies confirmed

CELTIC have announced Ange Postecoglou will lead his side to Austria for pre-season ahead of the 2022/23 season.

The club this afternoon confirmed the squad will jet out to Europe in the first week of July for a 10-day camp.

It's been announced the club will play a number of matches during the trip, but details have yet to be announced.

However, on the return from Austria Celtic will play Norwich and Blackburn in Glasgow.

Blackburn Rovers will head to Celtic Park for a friendly on Saturday, July 16 at 12.30pm in the first friendly of pre-season at Parkhead.

Norwich City will then play a friendly match at Celtic Park the following weekend on Saturday, July 23 with a 3pm kick-off. 

Both matches will be included on the 2022/23 season ticket.

Celtic's trip to Austria will be the first time back in the country after a training camp there for pre-season in 2019.

The club then played St Gallen - after a trip over the border into Switzerland - in the first ever match with VAR use in play for Celtic.

Following the 2019 trip to Austra, Celtic went on to seal a Quadruple Treble.
