Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Dani Alves look relaxed ahead of PSG travelling to Celtic in the Champions League
PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN’s squad look all smiles as they train ahead of Tuesday’s Champions League group stage match against Celtic.
Unai Emery’s squad, which cost around £590million to assemble, will fly to Scotland brimming with a confidence following a string of Ligue 1 victories.

The star-studded squad look relaxed while training at the Camp des Loges in France on Monday.
PSG have won their first five Ligue 1 matches after forking out fortunes during this summer’s transfer window.
Emery has an abundance of attackers at his disposal ahead of the trip to Celtic Park – including Kylian Mbappe, Neymar, Lucas Moura, Javier Pastore and Julian Draxler.
Former Real Madrid ace Angel di Maria remains unavailable for selection after picking up an injury whilst on international duty.
New boys Mbappe and Neymar have hit the ground running at Park des Princes, with the £364million partnership appearing to enjoy each others company – both on and off the field.
Neymar was part of the Barcelona squad that terrorised Celtic in the humiliating 7-0 victory in last term’s Champions League prior to his £196million switch to France.
