Watch as Daizen Maeda photobombs Philippe Clement's Celtic vs Rangers interview

Daizen Maeda often pops up all over the pitch for Celtic.

He was perhaps unexpectedly featured in a Rangers TV interview, though, after the derby win on Sunday.

The Japanese winger - who scored the opener for Celtic against Rangers - photobombed, or in this instance videobombed, Philippe Clement's post-match interview with club media.

As Clement answered questions on his side's defeat to Celtic, Maeda could be seen playing in the background with his kids.

The Celtic winger was clearly visible throwing a ball around at the side of the pitch at Celtic Park.

Maeda dedicated his goal against Rangers to his son with the match falling on the youngster's birthday.

On Instagram, Maeda posted: "Thank you for your support!💚🤍

"Yesterday was my son's birthday, so I'm happy to be able to give him the present of a victory and a goal.✌️"

Supporters loved the unexpected cameo as one joked: "He haunts them everywhere."

Another fan commented: "Daizen Maeda playing way his wains in the background.

"The gift that keeps on giving."
