It's a bond which has been forged on the pitch but a pair of Celtic's leading lights are united off it as well.
There have been notable highlights of Ange Postecoglou's reign so far and the popularity of Kyogo and Jota has been there for all to see since they joined in the summer of 2021. And an embraces between the pair has proved a highlight of an all access documentary charting the Japan striker's thrilling stay in Glasgow's east end.
Kyogo is a household name in his homeland and a TV crew travelled to his current home to see his journey starring under Postecoglou for the Premiership champions. And a touching moment between the pair at Lennoxtown was captured by the cameras. Jota can be seen hugging his mate as the pair share a joke with each other.
The duo have linked up for a series of goals – none better than the stunning strike and assist which Jota teed his mate up for in the 2-0 win over Ferencvaros in the Europa League last season. In the documentary, which was broadcasted in a primetime slot on national TV in Japan, Kyogo also opens up on missing out on the World Cup with Japan.
He said: "I can't help but talk about the past, so I look ahead and decide the goals that will help the team win. I think I am not good enough yet. Everyone can connect with just one ball. Football is great."
