President Mita of Albania has invited Celtic fans to join him on a beach party!
Summer holidays will be thin on the ground this year but with some traditional holiday favourites out of bound the beaches of the southern European nation might come into contention.
Since bumping into Celtic fans in Sarajevo last July Mita has been flying the flag all the way to 9-in-a-row with regular praise on his twitter account.
Today in Durrës, training for our 10th Premiership Champions in a row!
Flaming hugs for all my Celt friends and have a great Sunday!
You are welcomed to visit beautiful Albania?? for the summer holidays! I promise you won’t be disappointed!

Celtic have only played in Albania once, back in 1979 when the perms of Danny McGrain and Davie Provan were viewed with suspicion but the country has opened up considerably over the last 20 years.
Located north of Greece it could become a holiday favourite in years to come with many fans familiar with the nearby resort of Corfu.
Closer to home Neil Lennon’s squad will clock in in stages on Thursday as they start their preparations towards the new season.
On June 18 the shape of the season should become more apparent when UEFA announce their calendar for 2020/21 which could include a reduced qualification route to the Champions League with four qualifying rounds taking up eight consecutive midweeks in use over the last few seasons.
