Vidar Riseth backs Ronny Deila to succeed at Celtic

Former Celtic midfielder Vidar Riseth insists that Ronny Deila would be a success if the club appointed him as their new manager.

Former Celtic midfielder Vidar Riseth has insisted that Ronny Deila would be a success if he were named as the club's new manager.

Reports on Wednesday suggested that the Scottish champions were eager to speak to the Stromsgodset manager over the vacancy left by Neil Lennon's departure, and Riseth believes that he would quickly impress supporters in Glasgow.

"He is really strong in the head and that will help him if he goes to Celtic," Riseth told reporters. "The Celtic fans won't know much about him but in Norway, he is a big, big name.

"He won the league in Norway with Stromsgodset last year with just 10% of the budget that Rosenborg could spend.

"With the style of football he plays, he will soon make himself a hero to the Celtic supporters."

Stromsgodset are eager to resist any approach from Celtic as they prepare for their Champions League campaign.
