CHERRIES have completed a deal to sign Celtic midfielder Ryan Christie.

The Scotland international arrives for a fee the Daily Echo understands to be £2.5million, bringing to an end his six-season stay in Glasgow.

Christie, 26, has signed a three-year deal at Vitality Stadium.

He is understood to have completed his medical and agreed personal terms before flying to Denmark with the rest of the Scotland squad ahead of their World Cup qualifier tomorrow evening.

Christie's contract with Celtic was understood to be set to expire in January.

He was heavily linked with a move to the Premier League in this window with both Southampton and Burnley strongly linked.

Christie was part of the Scotland squad for Euro 2020 and has 20 senior caps for his country, scoring four goals.

Before joining Celtic, Christie came through the ranks at hometown club Inverness Caledonian Thistle. He also spent time on loan at Aberdeen.

But this move to Cherries will be the first time he has played club football outside of Scotland.

Chrsitie is the second signing of deadline day for Cherries, following the arrival of Jamal Lowe from Swansea.
