Celtic have announced the appointment of Chris Davies as new boss Brendan Rodgers's assistant manager.
The 31-year-old has previously worked alongside Rodgers during spells at Swansea City and most recently Liverpool.
Davies re-joined former club Reading earlier this year following his departure from the Reds' coaching staff but, just four days after Rodgers was himself appointed, the former Wales Under-19s international has also taken up a role at Parkhead.
"I am delighted to bring Chris to Celtic, he is a magnificent coach and someone I know will make a hugely positive contribution to the club," Rodgers told the Hoops' official website.
"He is ready and prepared for the challenge at Celtic and I know that Chris, like myself, can't wait to get going next season. He has worked with me previously; he is someone I know and trust and he will be a great addition to my team and to the club."
Davies added: "Celtic is huge club with such a special place in world football. It is a great honour and a proud moment for me to be named assistant manager. I saw the scenes at Celtic Park on Monday and there are not many clubs or fans in the world who could have put on such a show.
"We know what Celtic fans bring to the club and we want to reward our fans every week with entertaining football that gets results. I have worked with Brendan over a number of years, as a player and a coach, and it will be fantastic to team up with him again.
"I know all about his affection for Celtic and his appetite for taking on this great job. I am looking forward to meeting all the players and staff and working with them to give the supporters a team to be proud of."
Rodgers insisted earlier this week that taking over at Celtic 'is not a step down' from managing in the Premier League with Liverpool.
