CELTIC will send their Development squad to play in a prestigious youth tournament in South Africa later this month.

The young Hoops will be one of six European sides who have been invited to play in the Durban Under-19 International Football Tournament.

Arsenal, AC Milan, PSV Eindhoven, Stuttgart and Galatasaray will also play in the competition.

The South African under-19 national side and a local Youth Academy side will complete the line-up.

The tournament begins on the 29th of July, with the Final being held at the Moses Mabhida Stadium, which was a host venue for the 2010 World Cup.
