Celtic sell Zurawski to Greece's Larissa

Celtic have sold striker Maciej Zurawski to Greek side Larissa for £500,000.

Zurawski scored 30 goals in 73 appearances for the Hoops after signing from Wisla Krakow in the summer of 2005.

He notched 20 goals in his first season but injury hindered him following his return from the 2006 World Cup.

And he did not score in eight appearances during this campaign, which was again interrupted by niggling injuries.

The Poland skipper was keen to move on to get regular football after being warned by international coach Leo Beenhakker that his place in the Euro 2008 squad was in jeopardy.

And Celtic have announced on their official website that he has signed for Larissa, who knocked Blackburn out of the UEFA Cup this season but sit 10th in the Greek Super League table.
