Celtic have announced the signing of Oliver Burke on a loan deal until the end of the season.
The Kirkcaldy-native had been linked with a move to Parkhead in recent days, and the club moved quickly to secure their man.
Having something of an intriguing career, the winger started out in life at Nottingham Forest before joining R.B. Leipzig in the Bundesliga.
A one year stint in Germany ended last year, the Scot opting to head back to shores familiar in the form of a move to West Brom.

The 21-year-old is a fast, direct winger capable of terrorising opposing full-backs, and will be a much-welcomed addition to Brendan Rodgers’ attacking ranks.
Available until the end of the season, Burke will have a hand in trying to secure the Hoops’ eighth consecutive league title.
