Reo Hatate turned a few heads at training this morning with a highly unusual look.
While his team-mates went through the usual routines in their training kit the midfielder looked more like a Mannerquin with his face completely covered.
The photographer from SNS captured the moment with a few images as Brendan Rodgers put his squad through some drills ahead of Sunday’s match away to Ross County.
After the pain of Tuesday night in Dortmund the Celtic squad has a few days at Lennoxtown to get that match out of their system and refocus on the domestic challenge.
We’ve never seen a player like you before… Reo Hatatehttps://t.co/Oh0hNUrCFB

Hatate has missed out on a place in the Starting XI for the last two matches but will be looking to earn a place back in the side.
Tuesday night in Dortmund will have left a few emotional scars on the players with changes expected before the final fixture ahead of the international break.
Rodgers will stage a media conference early on Friday afternoon with an update on injuries with doubts over Greg Taylor, Cameron Carter-Vickers and Alistair Johnston.
I think Reo is playing a dangerous game here with his
‘Invisible Man’ impersonation.
Don’t think Brendan will take too kindly to the ‘ in your face’ suggestion
that Reo is being side lined.
Considering his recent sub par performances he should keep his
heid doon and put in the graft.
I don’t think he’s playing invisible man , it looks like an adidas contraption , maybe there is some kind of benefit in wearing it ! I could have done with one of these on Tuesday ?????
Reo, IMHO, has been struggling for maybe a year now. His body language is worrying and if he’s sending a message here I think he’ll really regret it. His behaviour and manner look like maybe bi-polar? He’s gone from incredibly confident of his outstanding ability to what appears to be a total lack of faith in himself. I honestly think he needs help here.
Oh to see that quality, smiling, laughing playmaker again looking ‘on top of the world’.
It’s connected with being dropped by Japan too, I think. Come on Brendan, a real bit of man-management here.
