Celtic midfielder Kundai Benyu has joined Swedish side Helsingborgs on a year-long loan deal.

Midfielder Benyu, who joined Celtic from Ipswich in 2017, has not played a senior game this season and will stay in Scandanavia until January 21, 2020.

The 21-year-old has two international caps for Zimbabwe and had a spell on loan with Oldham Athletic last season, where he made four appearances.

“I have a very good feeling,” Benyu said of the move. “It feels like a good opportunity for me to continuously play A-team football at a high level.

“My team-mate in Celtic, Mikael Lustig, told me that Helsingborg is a big club and that this was a good opportunity for me so I wanted to come here from the moment I heard about the interest. I have heard that the club has good supporters so I look forward to impressing them and showing what I can.”- SkySports
