Kayal unveiled by Celtic

Celtic have made Israel international midfielder Beram Kayal their seventh signing of the summer. The 22-year-old was unveiled at Lennoxtown today and will wear the No 33 jersey.

Kayal, who has agreed a four-year deal at Parkhead, joins Charlie Mulgrew, Cha Du-Ri, Joe Ledley, Daryl Murphy, Efrain Juarez and Gary Hooper in Neil Lennon's new-look squad.

He said: "It's a big thing for me - a dream come true. I talked with the coach and I was very impressed. I had heard a lot about him, I knew him as a player, he played in my position.

"After the discussions I found out that he was the guy who targeted me. He saw me on a lot of occasions. I'm happy he chose me and I'm happy to play for him.

"He told me he wants everyone to understand there is a new boss on the pitch, because in this position you are the boss. I do a dirty job and I work hard for the rest of my team-mates."
