Misfiring Celtic forward Amido Balde has joined Hapoel Tel Aviv on loan after cutting short a spell in Belgium.

The £1.8m Guinea-Bissau striker has been on loan at Waasland-Beveren since August after failing to impress Celtic boss Ronny Deila

Balde, who joined Celtic from Portuguese side Vitoria Guimaraes in 2013, scored three league goals in 20 appearances in Glasgow and managed just one goal during his four-month loan spell in Belgium.
