Celtic have completed their first summer signing after landing Toulouse defender Christopher Jullien in a deal reported to be worth £7million.
The centre-back has agreed a four-year deal and checks into Parkhead just 24 hours after the Hoops' saw their move for Motherwell playmaker David Turnbull collapse.
Jullien makes his switch to Glasgow after three years with the French side, where he made over 100 appearances, scoring eight goals.
The 26-year-old, who began his career with Auxerre before a three-year spell with German side SC Freiburg will meet the press on Friday afternoon but boss Neil Lennon has already welcomed his new recruit to the club from Celtic's Austrian training camp.
He said: "We are absolutely delighted to bring Christopher to Celtic. He is a quality player with great attributes and we are very much looking forward to him joining the squad and working with him.
"We've got a squad of great quality already here at the club, who have achieved incredible success over the past few seasons, but it's always good to add further quality to the group and that's what we've got with Christopher.
"I know the players will be delighted to welcome him into the squad and I know he will be keen to play his part in the seasons ahead as we look to deliver further success for our supporters."
