Three Celtic fans celebrated their side's Scottish Premiership title win by having a boozy party with the former Albanian President in the country's capital.Ilir Meta famously became a Celtic fan six decades ago, when the 1979 Scottish Champions' match with Albanian side Partizani Tirana was shown on TV in his homeland.And he welcomed a trio of Celtic fans - named as Sam Doran, Joseph Calvert & Charlie Hogan - to his Freedom Party's headquarters in Tirana last night before they took in the Hoops' 5-0 win over Kilmarnock at Rugby Park.A video posted on his account on X, formerly Twitter, showed Tedi Blushi with them at the party HQ.

Blushi, Secretary General of the party, said: "Our friends from Scotland have arrived."One of the fans then says: "We're waiting for the President" before they raise their beers in the air and say "Hail Hail!", while one adds: "Mon the Celtic!".The video was captioned: "Our friends from Scotland have arrived at the Freedom Party's headquarters to watch today's match together. #CelticFC we are one big family!
