Celtic have today launched their much-anticipated Christmas advert for 2019.
The advert has become synonymous with the club's festive celebrations every year as players make hilarious appearances to spread Christmas cheer.
This year's video stars legend Bertie Auld, Boli Bolingoli, Scott Brown, James Forrest, Neil Lennon and more as the Hoops' prepare to put on a Christmas show.
Based on the song 'We Three Kings', the advert pays tribute to Billy McNeill and Stevie Chalmers, Lisbon Lions legends who both died in April this year.
The lyrics of the song were changed to "Star of Lisbon, Star so bright, Star of Glasgow's Green & White".
And gaffer Neil Lennon is even on hand as the curtains open on the stage, conducting the footballers in their Christmas carol song.
The original song created for the film is also being released as a single, with proceeds going to Celtic FC Foundation's Christmas Appeal.
All the items showcased in the clip are available here.
