Celtic have announced they are to play a friendly in Australia this summer.

Gordon Strachan's men will face Brisbane Roar, whose ranks include former Rangers pair Craig Moore and Charlie Miller, the Hyundai A-League Foreign Player of the Year. The game in Queensland will take place on Sunday, July 12 at Suncorp Stadium.

Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell said: "Celtic are fortunate to enjoy the support of millions of people worldwide and it will be a great privilege to ensure that many of our Australian supporters have the chance to see the team play in their own country."

He added: "As well as playing in the match we are hoping to stage a number of other supporter events and we are sure we will make this a trip to remember for Celtic and our fans."
