Shay Given helps Newcastle and Celtic announce special pre-season friendly

Shay Given helped Newcastle United and Celtic announce their upcoming pre-season friendly, in what promises to be a special occasion in Scotland.

Shay spent time in the Celtic academy during the early days of his long career, before eventually moving to St James' Park, where he made over 350 appearances for the Toon. He was therefore the perfect choice to announce the match to supporters, with both clubs playing a key role in his football journey.

The Irish legend spoke to media throughout the launch event, including Celtic TV. You can watch his interview below:
