26 January 2010 11:52

Celtic have completed the signing of Morten Rasmussen from Brondby.

The Denmark striker, 24, has penned a three-and-a-half-year contract for an undisclosed fee.

He travelled to Glasgow on Monday to discuss personal terms and undergo a medical with the Hoops.

Rasmussen, who has three caps for his country, was recently in Thailand on duty with a Danish league select.

Speaking last week, he said: "This is a dream I have had for a long time."

Rasmussen, who is nicknamed Duncan due to a resemblance to former Rangers striker Duncan Ferguson, reportedly cost Celtic more than £1million.

He started his career with AGF Aarhus before moving in 2006 to Brondby, where he scored 52 goals in 111 games.

He has also played for his country at every age group from under-16 onwards.
