Scottish Premiership: Bumper shirt sponsorship deal for Celtic
Thursday 5 May 2016 15:23, UK
Celtic have secured a long-term shirt sponsorship deal with betting and gaming company Dafabet.
On the pitch, the club closed on a fifth successive Scottish Premiership title on Sunday with a 3-1 victory over Hearts at Tynecastle.
Activities away from the pitch appear to be in good shape with the club unveiling a four-year agreement for a new main sponsor.
The Dafabet name will be featured on the front of the club's shirts from the beginning of season 2016/17.
Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell said: "We are delighted to make this announcement, which is fantastic news for the club and our supporters and ensures a positive, long-term and high-value partnership for the future.
"We have already enjoyed an excellent relationship with Dafabet and we are delighted they have made such an increased commitment to the Club.

"We welcome Dafabet to Celtic as a Main Club Sponsor and very much look forward to working with such a successful organisation over the next four years."
