Celtic are close to settling a partnership with Mexican Premier League club Santos Laguna.

That would allow both clubs to share knowledge on the likes of coaching, players and football academies and perhaps in the future even exchange first-team players.
“We have developed an excellent relationship already with Santos Laguna and we hope to formalise this partnership early next year. Laguna is a great club, run by great people,” chief exectutive Peter Lawwell told Celtic’s official website.
“It is a club with a tremendous pedigree and one whose ethos is closely aligned to our own,” he added. “Like Celtic, Santos Laguna is much more than a football club, an organisation with a very strong social and community dimension but also a very professional club with a desire for success.
“We are sure the professionalism, spirit, enthusiasm and knowledge of Santos Laguna will be a real asset to Celtic.”
