Celtic to bring full-strength squad to Brisbane

Scottish giants Celtic will bring a near full-strength squad to Brisbane for their friendly in two weeks time. Celtic take on Brisbane Roar at Suncorp Stadium on Sunday July 12 and with new boss Tony Mowbray observing, all players on the list will be looking to impress.

"Everyone will be keen to impress Tony (Mowbray). Reputations will count for nothing, and they will all start with a clean slate," said Willie Wallace, the game's official ambassador.

"This is the first time in about 30 years that Celtic has visited Australia and I know everyone associated with the Club is keen to reward their many fans in this part of the world.

"I am looking forward to a great game of football in front of a very vocal and friendly crowd at Suncorp Stadium," Mr Wallace said.
