Transfer news: Celtic sign goalkeeper Craig Gordon on two-year deal Celtic have signed former Scotland goalkeeper Craig Gordon on a two-year contract. The Scottish champions have the option for a third year on the 31-year-old, who
has not played for over two years due to a serious knee injury. Gordon, who
joined Sunderland from Hearts in 2007 for £9m - a record for a goalkeeper - has spent much of this year building up his fitness at the training grounds of Championship clubs Hearts and Rangers.
Prior to flying out to Austria to join his team-mates on their pre-season tour, Gordon, who has been capped 40 times by his country,
told Sky Sports News: "It's been tough, it's been a long road back but this is the exciting part now.
"The hardest part is getting here and now I have to continue that and look forward to getting back into football.
"My next challenge is to prove I can still cut it at this level and it is a challenge I am looking forward to.
"I said to myself over a year ago that I needed to get back to this point where I could get the opportunity to prove myself all over again.
"So that's the stage I am at now and I look forward to that challenge. I can play again now and hopefully all the procedures I endured over the past two years are well behind me.
"Obviously Celtic have good goalkeepers who I need to battle past but the good thing is I am fit and able to give that my best shot and see what happens."
