CELTIC have been lined up to play a glamour pre-season friendly against Tottenham Hotspur.

The Scottish champions will face Christian Gross's team on July 25, just three days after their Champions League preliminary round opener.

If Celtic are drawn away in the Champions' League, it could be the first game in the new look 60,000 Parkhead, as well as the first opportunity for fans to welcome the new head coach.

They are also travelling to face Bolton Wanderers on August 4 for Jimmy Phillips' testimonial at the Reebok Stadium.
