Celtic have signed Manchester United's Tyler Blackett on a season long loan, the Scottish champions announced Saturday.
The 21-year-old defender previously had loan spells at lower league English clubs Blackpool and Birmingham City. Glasgow giants Celtic made Blackett's move public on their official website during the course of Saturday's Premiership game with St Johnstone.
And England U-21 international Blackett was then introduced to the home crowd at Parkhead during half-time, receiving a huge cheer as he raised a Celtic scarf above his head.
