Charlie Mulgrew: Blackburn Rovers sign ex-Celtic defender on free transfer

Charlie Mulgrew scored 30 goals in 205 appearances during a six-year spell at Celtic

Championship side Blackburn Rovers have signed former Celtic left-back Charlie Mulgrew on a three-year contract.

The 30-year-old Scotland international left the Scottish Premiership champions in the summer after failing to agree a new deal with Brendan Rodgers' side.

Mulgrew, who can also play in midfield, spent six years with Celtic and made 20 appearances for the club last season.

The former Wolves and Aberdeen player becomes Blackburn's 11th signing of the summer transfer window.
