Celtic store features bizarre Rangers lookalike Euros shirt with £55 price tag before club offers alternative

Celtic fans have reacted after a piece of Euro 2020 merchandise bearing a striking resemblance to a Rangers retro kit went on sale - on their club's own online store.

The navy Adidas top is Glasgow's version of one of a series of shirts made for the tournament based on the various host cities.

But its similarity to the Ibrox home kit of 1992-93 - also from the famous German sports label - has not been lost on the Hoops fanbase.

Not only that, but a huge number 10 on the front of the top has irked some supporters, as has the curious £55 price tag.

It appears to have since been replaced online on the Celtic store with the 'Dublin' version featuring a mostly green design - and with the price knocked down by £1.

After a week which saw the dramatic collapse of a deal to bring manager Eddie Howe to Parkhead, with Peter Lawwell and Dominic McKay changing tack to pursue Australian Ange Postecoglou, some supporters were irate about the club shop's new offering.

One raging Hoops fan on Twitter wrote: "Search in superstore for Adidas blue!! Our club have officially lost the plot!"

Whilst another added: "What the hell is this being sold on the official Celtic superstore website? Is this what they want us to spend our vouchers on?"

And one final punter rounded off the debacle by simply offering: "Is this some kind of sick joke?"

Euro 2020 begins in just nine days with the opening fixtures in Rome before Scotland kick off their tournament the following week at Hampden Park.
