Celtic manage, Ange Postecoglou has named his starting XI to take on Polish side, Legia Warsaw in what is bound to be an emotional night for one Hoops cult hero.
Polish goalkeepe, Artur Boruc is set to say farewell to football during a match between his two beloved sides. The stopper spent five years at Celtic Park after joining from Legia in 2005, spending five years in Glasgow before moving to Fiorentina.
His two clubs closest to his heart face off tonight in a testimonial-style match that will honour his career but it's not a walk in the park for one of them at least.
Postecoglou is putting the finishing touches on his squad ahead of a season that will include a Premiership title defence and Champions League group stage football. He signed Australian international, Aaron Mooy and German defender, Moritz Jenz prior to this but neither of them are in the XI or squad.

Reo Hatate returns from injury in midfield while striker Georgios Giakoumakis is still missing after Postecoglou confirmed the Greek talisman was expecting a child with his partner. Boruc starts for what is likely to be the final time in goal for the home side in Poland.
