Celtic have announced they have signed Kolo Toure on a free transfer.
Toure, 35, was released at the end of last season by Liverpool when his contract expired and Brendan Rodgers, who signed Toure for Liverpool in 201, has been quick to reunite with the defender in Scotland.
The former Ivory Coast international has signed a 12-month contract, which has an option for another year.
"I feel great," Toure told Celtic's official website. I feel really excited because it's going to be a new challenge for me. I've come to one of the biggest clubs in the world and it's a privilege for me to be here.
"I know a few friends who play football here and I know what the club has been achieving, winning a lot of trophies and playing Champions League a lot so that's something I'm looking at.
"I played with Brendan when he was at Liverpool and when we spoke about the chance for me to come here I was really happy because we know each other for a long time now. We've worked together and he's a top manager. For me it's a privilege to come and work with him again.
Toure only started nine games in the league last season but did score one goal.
