Celtic forward Teemu Pukki has revealed that playing against Tottenham Hotspur in the Finnish capital Helsinki will be special for him.
Having started his career in his home country of Finland, the forward was snapped up by Spanish outfit Sevilla, while he was still a teenager.
The move was followed by a return home in 2010 and a switch to Schalke 04 in 2011, before finally joining the Bhoys last August.
However, in spite of having played for a number of clubs throughout his career, the 24-year-old still has a special place in his heart for playing in Finland.

"It will be good for my family and friends to come and watch me playing for Celtic.
“It’s a really big thing for me. I played in the city for a year when I played for Helsinki and it will be nice to play there again."
