Legia Warsaw defender Maik Nawrocki has ed Scottish champions Celtic on a five-year deal, the Bhoys have announced.

German-born Poland Under-21 international Nawrocki has ed the Glasgow club, subject to international clearance, after helping Legia win the Polish Cup last season by scoring the winning spot-kick in a penalty shootout victory over Rakow Czestochowa.

Manager Brendan Rodgers told the club’s official website: “It’s another very good g for us and we’re delighted to have brought Maik to the club.

“He’s a very highly-rated young player and someone who we believe will be a great addition to the squad.

“He’s also a player I am very much aware of, having seen him play for Legia Warsaw in the Europa League, and I know he was very keen to move to Celtic, so we’re looking forward to working with him.”

Nawrocki, a product of Werder Bremen’s youth system, said: “Celtic are a famous club throughout the world and, of course, they’re very well-known in Poland, having had a number of Polish players in recent years, so I know just how big this club is and how incredible the ers are, and I can’t wait to play in front of the fans and experience that for myself.”
