Midfielder signs short-term contract with Helsingborg

Former Rangers midfielder Alejandro Bedoya has signed a short-term contract with Celtic's UEFA Champions League opponents, Helsingborg. The 25-year-old's move means he could face Celtic in Europe after his new club were drawn against Rangers' Old Firm rivals in the play-offs. Bedoya's move was announced by Helsingborg in a statement and they have described the deal as a "win-win" situation. The club's sports director, Jesper Jansson, said Bedoya "is the type of player we need" and he will train with the club on Sunday. Bedoya previously spent two-and-a-half years in Sweden with Orebro SK before joining Rangers in 2011 and then leaving Ibrox after the club was liquidated.
