The Australian only played a handful of minutes for Celtic when on his debut at Dundee a freak accident caused his ACL to tear. The young man has been in rehab since and is looking to have a big season under Neil Lennon.
Celtic signed the player on-loan for two years and the Socceroo is desperate to get his Celtic career properly started. Arzani faces stiff competition for those attacking midfield places.
It will be up to Daniel to show exactly why he was the youngest participant at last years World Cup.
