Celtic will ditch their shirt sponsor, Dafabet, for tomorrow’s Champions League clash with Shakhtar Donetsk.

Poland, like many European countries don’t allow gambling companies to advertise directly with sports events with Dafabet.

Celtic’s sponsorship deal with the Philippines based firm runs through until the end of the 24/25 season with some pressure for gambling related advertising to be banned in the UK.

Ange Postecoglou’s squad are due to arrive in Poland later today with the pressure on after losing at home to Real Madrid.

That result wasn’t unexpected but Shakhtar’s 4-1 win away to RB Leipzig has given the group a new complexion with the Ukrainian champions now favourites to take second place behind Real.

Celtic have a record of just two wins away from home in the Champions League but scoring eight times away from home in last season’s Europa League group matches suggests that if the hoops defence can be tightened up there is hope of taking at least a point home from Warsaw.
