Liel Abada 'agrees' new deal as Celtic set to keep winger

Celtic winger Liel Abada has reportedly signed a new four-year contract with the Scottish champions.

This is according to transfer guru Fabrizio Romano, who claims the Hoops have tied down the Israel international on a lengthy deal.

Reports had suggested that the 22-year-old was in negotiations with the club and now it appears an agreement has been reached.

Writing on X, Romano said: "Told Liel Abada signs new deal at Celtic today! Agreement reached on four year contract, he’s staying and extending at the club

"Excellent news for Celtic as Abada was wanted by many clubs."

Abada joined the Parkhead club in the summer of 2021, scored 29 goals, and provided 21 assists across 109 appearances, picking up five trophies.

Meanwhile, Celtic have announced a limited edition home jersey to mark 120 years of the Hoops.

It is the fourth kit the Scottish champions have released this season, including the second iteration of the home strip.

The new top pays tribute to the recognisable pattern that the Parkhead club have adorned for over 120 years.

Costing £70, the jersey is available to pre-order now from the club's official shop website.

The press release read: "The club are delighted to reveal a very special, limited-edition adidas x Celtic FC jersey to mark 120 years of Hoops.

"A celebration of the iconic green and white Hoops synonymous with Celtic Football Club for 120 years, the simple yet stunning green and white jersey is a timeless classic and available to pre-order now, ahead of its release on Friday, September 8.

"There is a bond between the Celtic players and supporters and the strongest link in that bond is the shirt they both proudly wear on and off the pitch.

"From the day the Hoops were introduced on August 15, 1903, there have been many incredible moments experienced and memories made in the Hoops, including that unforgettable image of our greatest ever captain, Billy McNeill, lifting the European Cup in 1967 wearing the green and white.

"This classic adidas x Celtic FC limited-edition jersey is a celebration of Glasgow’s green and white, giving supporters the chance to secure a top which conveys a simple and everlasting message of ‘the perfect Hoops’."
