Celtic facing fresh legal action amid allegations of historical sex abuse at boys' club
- Celtic Football Club is facing a fresh compensation claim over allegations of sexual abuse at the hands of convicted paedophile Frank Cairney, who coached at the youth club decades ago.
- A man is seeking a six-figure sum claiming he was sexually assaulted by Cairney around 1989 when he was 14 years old, with Digby Brown Solicitors raising the court action.
- Last year, Celtic's parent company agreed to pay compensation to almost 30 former boys' club players abused by Cairney and James Torbett, after a previous landmark group claim.
