Celtic have announced that they have completed the double signing of midfielder Aaron Mooy and centre-back Moritz Jenz.

Mooy joins the Hoops on a free transfer after leaving Chinese Super League outfit Shanghai Port, and the 31-year-old has put pen to paper on a two-year deal at Parkhead.

The Australia international will reunite with compatriot Ange Postecoglou, having previously worked under him during his time with the national team.

Jenz, meanwhile, has agreed to join Celtic on a season-long loan deal from Ligue 1 side Lorient and the Hoops are understood to have an option to sign the 23-year-old permanently next summer.

Mooy and Jenz have become Celtic's fifth and sixth signings of the summer window, after the arrivals of Jota, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Alexandro Bernabei and Benjamin Siegrist.

Speaking to Celtic TV on his arrival in Glasgow, Mooy said: "It's an amazing feeling and I'm just so happy to be here. It's a massive club with a huge history, and I want to be part of it, so I'm looking forward to the challenges ahead.

"It's always a bit stressful when you're talking with a club, especially a club like Celtic because they're such a massive club, so I'm delighted that it's all done and I can get to work and hit the training ground.

"Ange was my coach for about three years in the national team so I know the standards he wants, and I'm looking forward to working with him again.

"I've had a few weeks without the ball so I'm looking forward to touching the ball again and getting my fitness up and meeting my new team-mates and the staff."

Postecoglou added: "I'm delighted that we've been able to bring in both Aaron and Moritz to the club, and I'm sure they'll be great additions to our squad.

"I obviously know Aaron from my time coaching the Australian national team, and he brings with him a wealth of experience at both club and international level.

"Moritz is a player we've been aware for a while now, and I'm pleased that we've been able to sign him.

"They've already had the chance to meet the rest of the squad, and I'm sure they'll settle in very quickly into what is a very welcoming group of players, and I know that our supporters will be looking forward to seeing them both in a Celtic jersey."

Mooy, who has been capped 52 times by Australia, is familiar with the Scottish Premiership having spent two years with St Mirren between 2010 and 2012.

The midfielder has since represented the likes of English duo Huddersfield Town and Brighton & Hove Albion, before moving to China in 2020 where he has spent the last two seasons.

As for Jenz, the Berlin-born defender began his youth career with Fulham, although he failed to make a single senior appearance for the club between 2015 and 2020.

After a year with Swiss club Lausanne-Sport, the 23-year-old then joined Lorient last summer on a permanent deal and made 17 Ligue 1 appearances in the 2021-22 campaign.

Both Mooy and Jenz could make their competitive debuts for Celtic in their opening Premiership game of the new season at home against Aberdeen on July 31. body check tags ::
