At lunchtime today Kyogo Furuhashi popped up on Instagram to over 39m followers. 

The Celtic forward is capable of popping up almost anywhere from Japanese cooking shows to programmes dedicated to team-mate Reo Hatate. 

As recently as June 6 Kyogo was turning out for Japan against Brazil, now after the briefest of breaks he has restarted training at his old club Vissel Kobe- complete with Barcelona legend Andres Iniesta. 

At the age of 38 Leo Messi’s former team-mate is still going strong with two goals in 16 appearances for Vissel. While some star names drop in for a one season pay day Iniesta is in his fifth season in the J-League with Kyogo learning from a genuine legend on and off the pitch. 

Good to see you again my friend

Kyogo can enjoy another week on ‘holiday’ before he returns for pre-season training at Celtic with the twin incentives of Champions League and World Cup football to look forward to before the end of the year.
