The midfielder has recently signed a new long-term deal at Parkhead and knows the strengths of his game.
Reo Hatate says he won't be able to keep the ball for 90 minutes - but he's told Celtic one top asset in his locker can see him soar.
Speaking to Soccer King in relation to his national team role, the 25-year-old admits it's impossible for him to keep hold of the ball for an entire game. But he can be a difference maker in turning defensive situations into attack. He said: "I don't know how it will play out, but there's no way I can hold the ball for 90 minutes. Switching between offence and defence is one of my strengths, so I think the key will be how I can make my presence felt there.
