Celtic have signed the Chinese star Du Wei from Shanghai Shenhua on a four year contract. The 6ft 4inch defender, has 12 international caps and skippers his national side.

The player was very impressive during a week-long trial earlier in August and at 22 years old, has all the attributes and potential to be a regular in the first team for years to come.

Celtic have an option to review his contract in January should he fail to adapt to life the SPL. The player speaks good English so communication should not be a problem.

A Celtic spokesperson said: “We’re delighted to have signed Du Wei on a four-year deal. Within the agreement, there is an option for the club to review it in January but, all going well, we look forward to Du Wei playing for the club over the next four years.”

Du Wei will wear the number 5 shirt.
