A VIDEO of Celtic fans singing a new song for new club signing, striker Carlton Cole has gone viral - while receiving the praise of former German international Didi Hamann.

The former Liverpool midfielder paid tribute to the new chant which borrows from Spandau Ballet's 80s hit Gold.

Meanwhile TV pundit and former West Ham United star Trevor Sinclair has wished Carlton Cole well ahead at Celtic.

The 32-year-old was recently confirmed as a Ronny Deila signing after training with the Scottish champions for a number of weeks. He was a free agent but will now try his hand at Scottish football for the first time.

Glasgow Times:

Cole, who has seven England caps, is keen to add further honours to his career and win trophies with the Scottish champions.

"When Celtic called and said they wanted me, I just ran over," Cole said.

Glasgow Times:

Cole, who had been training with Celtic in recent weeks, was part of Chelsea's Premier League-winning squad in 2006 and a member of the West Ham side that won the Championship play-off final in 2012.

He has been without a club since leaving Upton Park at the end of last season and also attracted interest from the Middle East.
