Celtic secure Soro signing

By published

Celtic have completed the signing of midfielder Ismaila Soro from Israeli club Bnei Yehuda on a four-and-a-half-year deal.

The Scottish champions announced his arrival on Monday evening after boss Neil Lennon said last week that the 21-year-old Ivorian was undergoing a medical in Israel as he waited for a visa to be sorted.

A statement released on the club’s official website said Soro will begin training with Lennon’s squad on Tuesday.

He becomes Celtic’s second January signing following the arrival of forward Patryk Klimala.
