Japan's national football team has summoned midfielder Ao Tanaka and Celtic forwards Kyogo Furuhashi and Daizen Maeda for upcoming friendlies against Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. The inclusion of these players underscores their importance to both club and country, as they prepare to represent Japan on the international stage.

Ao Tanaka, currently playing for Fortuna Düsseldorf, is expected to be a key figure in the midfield, bringing his dynamic play to the national squad. Meanwhile, Celtic's Kyogo Furuhashi and Daizen Maeda have been pivotal in the Scottish Premiership, with their performances earning them a spot in the national team. This call-up comes at a crucial time, as they aim to fine-tune their skills ahead of more competitive matches.

The friendly matches against Bahrain and Saudi Arabia will serve as important preparation for Japan, helping to assess the team's form and strategy. For Celtic fans, the absence of these players could impact the team's performance in domestic competitions, but the international exposure will undoubtedly be beneficial for their development.
