Snoop Dogg has told of his hopes to open a burger van at Celtic Park – and to serve fans himself.
The West Coast rapper has previously spoken of investing in the Glasgow football club, similar to Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds's involvement with Wrexham FC.

Snoop Dogg has already published a cookbook and claims to have spoken to chef Gordon Ramsay about a possible venture in Glasgow together – but he has now revealed he wants to set up a fast-food van at Celtic's stadium in the city's east end.

He has described Celtic supporters as "special" and the best fans in European football, and said he identifies strongly with the club's mascot Hoopy the Hound – describing it in a previous interview as a "match made in heaven".
The keen sports fan worked as a correspondent for NBC at the Paris Olympics last year, has launched two youth football leagues, and has been a vocal advocate for pay equality for female athletes.

He told the Sunday Mail that Celtic fans would support the burger van and that it would become a foodie "Paradise" – the nickname give to Celtic Park.
He said: "I would love to bring a pop-up burger (van) to a sports stadium to show fans that food at stadiums can be good.
"It's got to be Celtic Park, man. The secret to a good burger is the love in the preparation. The ground beef has got to be mixed with some secret spices, then add a good quality cheese and some maple-cured bacon.

"The Celtic fans are gonna love it, and to make sure they are just right, Snoop is going to be serving them himself."
But he said he would not be taking his culinary ventures to Celtic's Old Firm rivals at Ibrox.
Snoop told the Sunday Mail: "Am I going to bring my burgers to Rangers as well? Nah, I think we will give that a miss."

Rangers star Hamza Igamane ‘wanted by SEVEN clubs' across Europe as asking price ‘revealed'

It could be an EIGHT-figure profit A WANTED IGAMANE Rangers star Hamza Igamane 'wanted by SEVEN clubs' across Europe as asking price 'revealed' HAMZA IGAMANE is attracting new interest from France, with up to SEVEN clubs across Europe keen on the Rangers star. That's according to a report in France, which also lists the asking price the Ibrox club is reportedly demanding. Advertisement 1 Hamza Igamane celebrates his winner in the 3-2 win over Celtic in March Credit: Willie Vass Igamane, 22, only joined Gers last summer from FAR Rabat in his homeland of Morocco last summer. He cost the Light Blues £1.7million and is sure to net them a profit whenever he does leave. The forward took a while to impose himself on the starting XI under Philippe Clement but around the turn of the year was the main man up top. He dropped behind Cyriel Dessers in the pecking order once Barry Ferguson was named interim boss but still produced a stunning winner against Celtic in a 3-2 Old Firm derby victory at Parkhead. Advertisement Dessers is also the subject of transfer interest so while Rangers are in rebuild mode under Russell Martin, it's unlikely both of them would depart in the same window. According to Foot Mercato in France, Lens, Lille, Rennes and Strasbourg have joined Premier League side Everton in adding the striker to their wanted list. It's also said that Brentford and West Ham are keen on the player. Interestingly, Igamane could then feasibly end up replacing the ex-Celtic star Kyogo Furuhashi, who has been outcast at Rennes. Advertisement It was reported back in March that La Liga outfit Sevilla were also exploring a potential swoop for Igamane. Sevilla baulked at the thought of a £10m transfer fee but according to Foot Mercato, the price has only gone up with Gers now demanding £12.7m for their young star. Rangers fans react to news Russell Martin is their new manager The links with Everton go back months as well, with the Toffees being connected with him during the January transfer window. Everton are also believed to be keen on Gers midfielder Mohamed Diomande. Advertisement Keep up to date with ALL the latest news and transfers at the Scottish Sun football page

How Celtic man fared as Portugal kick off U21 Euros campaign

The match was both nations' first of the Under-21 European Championships, which are being held in Slovakia this summer. Portugal and France are in Group C, alongside Poland and Georgia, who themselves faced off tonight, the latter emerging 2-1 victors at the home of MSK Zilina. Read more: In Trencin, Bernardo captained his country and put in an adequate performance in midfield as they picked up a point. Although the Celtic man completed 94 per cent of his passes, he also missed two big chances. Portugal, in total, had three shots on target to France's four. Possession was relatively split, at six per cent in favour of the French. Bernardo and his teammates now turn their attention to their matchday two clash with Poland, which takes place on Saturday, June 14 at 2pm. They round off their group campaign with a game against Georgia on Tuesday, June 17, which kicks off at 5pm. The two top teams from each of the four sections then progress to the quarter-finals. At the Under-21 Euros, a new UEFA rule, which will be rolled out next season, is being enforced for the first time. It will only allow goalkeepers to hold the ball for a maximum of eight seconds, or else a corner will be awarded to the opposing team. "The eight-second count begins when the goalkeeper has full control of the ball and is not being challenged by an opposing player," say UEFA. "The referee will visibly count down the final five seconds, ensuring the goalkeeper can see the countdown. "If opponents begin to pressure or obstruct the goalkeeper during the countdown, the referee will stop the count and award an indirect free kick in favour of the goalkeeper."

Celtic 'eye' move for 16-goal international attacker

The 23-year-old, currently with Danish club Nordsjaelland, is said to be on Brendan Rodgers' radar. With Nygren's contract set to expire in six months, he could be available for as little as £2 million, according to SunSport. Read more: However, Celtic face competition from Anderlecht and Copenhagen for the versatile forward. Nygren, who can play as a number 10 or on the wings, has been in impressive form. Last season, he scored 16 goals and provided four assists in 32 appearances for Nordsjaelland. He has also earned four caps for Sweden, scoring twice for his national side. Given his decision not to renew his contract at Nordsjaelland, a move seems likely. Celtic have also been linked with Callum Osmand, Nilson Angulo, Sondre Orjasaeter, and Michel-Ange Balikwisha.
