Lyn Oslo snap up Celtic's Bjarnason

Lyn Oslo have snapped up Celtic midfielder Teddy Bjarnason.

The 20-year-old was brought to Celtic in January 2005 by Martin O'Neill and the Icelandic player impressed for the youth and reserve teams.

He made his first-team debut at Easter Road in a 2-1 defeat by Hibernian in May last year and went on to win his first international cap for Iceland.

Bjarnason signed a new contract in the summer and featured in Celtic's pre-season tour of Switzerland.

But that game against Hibs proved to be his last for the club after he suffered a foot injury at the start of the season.

The youngster found himself out in the cold as Scott Brown and Massimo Donati stepped in to Gordon Strachan's midfield, and Paul Hartley hit top form.
