Lustig desperate to enjoy European nights with Celtic

Mikael Lustig says he is determined to experience some 'amazing European nights' with Celtic next season.

The Sweden international made his home debut for the Hoops at the start of April in the 2-0 win over St Johnstone and ahead of Sunday's Old Firm derby with Rangers, Lustig is now keen to taste more of the same at Parkhead, including some Euro action which will begin this summer with Champions League qualifiers.

"It was a good atmosphere that afternoon and I thought the Celtic fans were really good," he told Celtic View.

"It was special to be playing in front of our home fans for the first time and it´s a part of my career that I will never forget. I was standing in the tunnel waiting to go out and play in front of them all, but it was okay, I'm confident in my own game so I wasn't nervous.

"It was a full stadium and that gives you an idea of what it could be like next season if we qualify for the Champions League. I've heard the European nights here are amazing so I hope I can be a part of it if it comes around."
