Bernabei, who was on the bench when Celtic won 5-0 against Kilmarnock on Sunday, posted a photo with a pal on Instagram a few hours after the match at Parkhead.

It showed the pair sitting outside a restaurant on St Vincent Place.

Celtic signed the defender on a five-year contract at the end of June.

The club has been approached for comment.
