On the park Johnston has been on top form in pre-season and even managed to captain Celtic in the second half of their 6-1 win over Pinkafeld.
The winger scored a double that day just as he had in the final SPFL match of last season as Celtic beat Hearts 2-1 before collecting the SPFL trophy.
Johnston kept his place for the Scottish Cup Final against Hearts and was picked out for praise by Neil Lennon after the 0-0 draw with St Gallen on Tuesday night.
Last season there were suggestions that he could be sent out on loan but after starting seven SPFL matches last season and scoring five goals he’s looking to kick on and establish himself in the season ahead- wearing number 19 on his back.
They’ve been round the block a bit but retain their knack for getting things right more often than not…https://t.co/tXHxjIbiyr
