Celtic and Chelsea set to star in New York tournament

CHELSEA and Celtic are in talks to appear in a four-team tournament in New York next summer.

Both the English and Scottish champions have been regular visitors to the US in previous close seasons and promoters of the new World Series programme of tournaments are believed to be in talks with both clubs about a return next summer for a four-team event alongside another major European club.

Each team would play twice in three days in a mini-league format at Giants Stadium.
