Shelbourne will host Scottish double-winners Celtic this summer as part of the Bhoys' pre-season schedule.

Celtic's visit to Tolka Park on July 7 will mean it will be the fourth season in a row having a fixture on Irish soil.

Martin O'Neill's Celtic will then head out to Portugal for a training camp, which will culminate in a match against Sporting Lisbon on July 14 at the Estádio Algarve, before the Hoops head home for a clash with Italian giants, AC Milan.
