Benjamin Siegrist: Celtic sign former Dundee United keeper on four-year deal
- Published
Benjamin Siegrist has joined Celtic on a four-year contract.
The Swiss goalkeeper, 30, spent the past four years at Dundee United, making 145 appearances for the Tangerines.
Last season, Joe Hart, 35, was Celtic's first-choice keeper as they won the Scottish Premiership and League Cup.
"Joe needs no introduction, Joe was a role model and he's still is a role model for me," Siegrist told Celtic's website.
"I want to learn as much as possible. But I want to compete, I want to push him, he's certainly going to push me all the way."
And Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou added: "We all saw last season the ability that Ben has, as time and again he delivered fantastic performances."
