Celtic have confirmed the signing of Camilo Duran from Qarabag on a five-year deal.
The 24-year-old Colombian forward arrives from the Azerbaijan Premier League runners-up for an undisclosed fee.
He scored 15 goals and provided 10 assists last season, with five of those goals coming in 10 Champions League appearances.
“It was a dream come true playing in the Champions League,” the Scottish champions’ first new signing of the summer told club media.
“That’s what you dream of as a kid, so to score goals was amazing and that’s what I want to continue doing here, scoring goals in the Champions League.
“I give it my all in every game, with a lot of effort and dedication, and hopefully the goals will come.
“It’s an honour to be the first Colombian to play for Celtic. It’s been a dream of mine since I was a kid [to play for my country] and I hope that being here at Celtic and working well, then one day that will become true.”
Duran joined Qarabag last summer from Portuguese second-tier side Portimonense.
Now he is back in Portugal at Celtic’s training camp.
“When I first heard of the interest there was absolutely no doubt in my mind and I’m just excited to get playing with the boys,” he added.
“I’ve told the manager how happy I am to be here and that I will hopefully repay him with my performances.”
