Celtic are to hand a week-long trial to USA international midfielder Sacha Kljestan.

Kljestan, 23, has won 11 full international caps and currently plays for MLS side Chivas.

The midfielder scored two goals during three appearances for the USA's Under-23 side at last summer's Beijing Olympics.

Meanwhile, Celtic midfielder Paul Hartley has warned his team-mates against prematurely writing off Rangers' title challenge.

The Bhoys are currently five points clear of their traditional rivals at the top of the SPL table.

"Rangers will push us all the way. We've still got to play them twice more," warned Hartley.

"We know it's going to be difficult but we have to make sure we're ready for it."
