The funeral service for Tommy Burns will be held at the birthplace of Celtic.
A Requiem Mass will take place on Tuesday at St Mary’s Church in Calton, about a mile from Celtic Park.
The club revealed St Mary’s was a parish “extremely close” to the heart of Burns, who was brought up in Calton.
St Mary’s Church Hall was also where founder Brother Walfrid and others discussed the establishment of a football club to help feed the poor in the east end, in November 1887.
A statement on the club’s website added: “Unfortunately, due to restrictions on seating at the church, access to the service will be predominantly for family, friends and club representatives and there will only be very limited public access.
“Following the Requiem Mass, the funeral cortege will pass by the main stand at Celtic Park where supporters will have the opportunity to pay their respects to Tommy Burns.”
The Requiem Mass will begin at 12.15pm.
