ROSENBORG last night admitted Celtic target Mikkel Diskerud will move on this summer.

The midfielder, who was in the USA’s World Cup squad, has just six months left on his deal.

And Rosenborg boss Per Joar Hansen said: “There will definitely be players leaving.”

Meanwhile, Charlie Mulgrew is confident Celtic will be ready for Reykjavik after getting a Rapid roasting from Ronny Deila.

The Hoops boss wasn’t happy with his players’ attitude in the 1-1 draw with Rapid Vienna in Austria on Sunday.

Celtic were rocky after losing skipper Scott Brown but sorted it out and the workout proved worthwhile ahead of next week’s Champions League qualifier.

Mulgrew said: “It was a tough match but you have to play it like you’re going to play in the new season.

“You need to be as realistic as possible and try to treat it as much like a competitive match as you can.

“I’m happy to get 90 minutes under my belt and feel better for it.

“Everything’s going well so far and we’re delighted at getting more fitness.”

And, Celtic face big competition from Lazio to re-sign striker Georgios Samaras after the Italians reignited a long-term interest in the Greek.

Parkhead boss Ronny Deila revealed the club could try to persuade Samaras to extend his seven-year stay – even though he has now left the champions.

Sevilla, Everton and Hamburg are also interested in the 29-year-old who had an inspired showing in Brazil.

Lazio sporting director Igor Tare said: “Samaras is a footballer I really like.”
