ICC 2016: Leicester Prepare For Tournament Opener At Celtic Park

- Leicester City kick off the 2016 International Champions Cup against Celtic on Saturday
- Foxes arrived in Glasgow on Friday before training at Celtic Park
- Claudio Ranieri and Wes Morgan face the media before training
- Foxes set for second outing in preparation for Premier League title defence
The Leicester City squad geared up for their International Champions Cup opener this weekend with a training session at Celtic Park on Friday evening.
Having touched down in Glasgow just a few hours before, the English champions made their way to the famous 60,000-seat home of the Scottish champions, where they were able to sample the surroundings they will face in Saturday's pre-season encounter with the Bhoys.

Having kicked off their preparations for the defence of their Premier League title with a 2-1 win at Oxford United on Tuesday, Saturday marks the start of the international stage of City's pre-season campaign. The squad fly to LA on Sunday ahead of a meeting with Paris Saint-Germain on 30 July, before facing Barcelona in Stockholm on 3 August.
Manager Claudio Ranieri and captain Wes Morgan were first to arrive at Celtic Park on Friday, fielding questions from the media in a typically good-humoured pre-match press conference.
"It's a different pre-season for us," Claudio admitted, reflecting on the opportunity to participate in a tournament as prestigious as ICC 2016.
"Last season, all of our games were very close and this year we are all over the world.
"It's very good for experience. We have some players that have not experienced international football before, so this is good for them."
The City boss expressed his admiration for new Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers, wished Sam Allardyce well following his appointment as England manager and addressed further matters including the recent departure of assistant manager Steve Walsh, speculation surrounding members of his squad and preparation for the season ahead.
After their joint media engagement, Claudio and Wes joined the rest of the group for a training session on the Celtic Park pitch, which will have helped both with acclimatising to Saturday's surroundings and loosening off from the day's travelling.
All 19 players in the travelling party participated in the session - including Marc Albrighton and Papy Mendy, who both missed Tuesday night's game at Oxford - meaning Ranieri should have plenty of options at his disposal for Saturday's game. While tournament rules permit up to 11 substitutions during the game, it is expected that some members of the squad will taste a first full 90 minutes of pre-season.
