The present invention relates to an aqueous or hydro-alcoholic suspension of chitosan, dispersed cellulose nanofibers, and an acid, wherein the cellulose nanofibres are not TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibers, which is suitable for obtaining a hydrogel composite comprising a network of chitosan and cellulose nanofibers. The suspension of the invention is useful for tissue regeneration and the hydrogel of the invention is useful as bioresorbable and biocompatible implant.
