A collection of Celtic fans have been left rather excited after seeing new footage of Daizen Maeda during a training session. 

After the successful arrival of J-League striker Kyogo Furuhashi in the summer, the Bhoys have decided to return to that well once more this January.

Indeed, the club have already signed three players from the same division this winter in Maeda, Yosuke Ideguchi and Reo Hatate.

Eager to catch a glimpse of their new stars, supporters were left impressed after spotting Maeda showing some explosive speed in a short clip from the training ground that was shared by the club’s official Twitter page.

After seeing the display of such rapid sprinting ability, the fans took to social media to express their reactions.

Here’s what these Celtic fans said…

“He’s gonna be huge for us.”
“Wow, he’s gonna run the Sevconions ragged. Can’t wait to pump them and get our league and Scottish cup back. Thank you Ange, you are already a legend.”
“Unreal acceleration, this is really about to be a dynasty.”
“I need to see more!!!!”
“Oh he’s quick.”
“Celtic dying to unleash this boy. Yass.”

It’s clear to see how stunned these supporters are by the pace Maeda displays in the short clip. No doubt, they’ll be desperate to see that on the pitch when he makes his debut for the Hoops.

Would you sell Stephen Welsh this January for £5m?

Yes

Yes

No

The 24-year-old – and the other January signings – could be crucial for Celtic in the second half of the season as they look at catch rivals Rangers in the league, who currently sit first in the Scottish Premier League with a six-point lead.
