Kasper Schmeichel has signed a one-year deal at Scottish Premiership champions Celtic.
Sky Sports News reported last week the former Leicester goalkeeper had agreed terms to join the Hoops, after his brief spell at Belgian club Anderlecht came to an end this summer. The 37-year-old - who represented Denmark at Euro 2024 - will hope to replace Joe Hart as Celtic's new No 1, after Hart retired at the end of last season.
He lives for football and he is coming to a club where he will feel the same passion that he has for the game. 'I know he will feel right at home at Celtic and we look forward to working with him as we all aim for more success.' Celtic's first four league matches at the start of their Premiership title defence are live on Sky Sports, starting with their home game against Kilmarnock on August 4.
