Brendan Rodgers' Celtic Champions League squad list confirmed as fringe players involved but one misses out

Brendan Rodgers has named his Champions League squad for Celtic's coming eight games in the revamped tournament.

The Hoops will play eight games with four at home and the other four away and the Hoops' new summer signings have all been named among the final list of 25 players. Arne Engels, Auston Trusty, Luke McCowan and Alex Valle are all among the names picked for the tournament.

But others such as Maik Nawrocki, Yang, Adam Montgomery and Scott Bain have all also been listed. The one glaring omission from Rodgers' squad is the first player signed after the Northern Irishman was announced as manager for a second time.

Odin Thiago Holm has missed out of the 25-man announcement after the boss issued a thinly veiled criticism of the 21-year-old recently. The manager admitted the Norwegian had the talent but questioned his workrate with the player not featuring this season yet.

Full squad

Schmeichel, Sinisalo, Bain, Johnston, Taylor, Scales, Trusty, Valle, Nawrocki, CCV, Hatate, Ralston, Welsh, Palma, Kyogo, Kuhn, Yang, McCowan, Engels, Bernardo, McGregor, Forrest, Idah, Montgomery, Daizen.
