CELTIC Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of highly rated Under-21 Norwegian international Thomas Rogne. The 19-year-old central defender has signed for Celtic on a three-and-a-half-year contract.

Thomas, who has been in training with the Celtic first team, over the past few days, said: “I ‘m absolutely delighted to sign for a club of Celtic's stature. It really is a dream come true to join such a famous club.

“I’ve already joined training with the first-team for the last few days and I have received a great welcome and have enjoyed very much working with the manager and players at Celtic.

“The Celtic first team is where I want to be and I’ll be doing my very best to try and make an impact and ensure that I can achieve this as soon as possible.”

Celtic manager Tony Mowbray said: “Thomas is a young player we’ve watched for a while and we’re delighted to bring him to the club. He’s only 19 but has had good experience in the Norwegian league.

“We’ve had a chance to have a look at him in recent days at Lennoxtown and he’s shown up well. He has all the physical attributes and personality to be a success at Celtic.

“Thomas has a bright future and will be training with the first-team squad, and competing for a place in the side.

“Like Josh Thompson and Milan Misun, Thomas is a big part of our future plans in defence. We are bringing these talented players to the club in order to ensure the foundations are in place for the coming years.”
