Colin Kazim-Richards joins Celtic from Feyenoord on two-and-a-half-year deal

Celtic have announced the signing of Colin Kazim-Richards from Feyenoord on a two-and-a-half-year deal.

The 29-year-old, who has previously played for Brighton & Hove Albion, Sheffield United and Blackburn Rovers, got through just six months of his contract after signing for the Dutch club in the summer following a loan spell.

Kazim-Richards, who has racked up almost 40 international caps for Turkey, leaves Feyenoord on a sour note as he was recently suspended for two weeks after threatening a journalist.

The striker's arrival is the second of the day following the acquisition of Manchester City teenager Patrick Roberts on an 18-month loan deal.
