Scotland left-back Greg Taylor has signed for PAOK, the Greek top-flight club have announced, after rejecting a new contract with Celtic.

The 27-year-old, who has 14 caps for his country, spent six years with the Scottish champions after signing from Kilmarnock.

Scotland mainstay Kieran Tierney, who can operate at either left-back or in central defence, has returned to Celtic at the end of his contract with Arsenal.

But manager Brendan Rodgers had been keen to keep Taylor as well with loanee Jeffrey Schlupp having returned to Crystal Palace.

Taylor made 216 appearances for Celtic, including 37 starts and six substitute appearances last season as they retained the league title.

PAOK finished third behind Olympiakos and Panathinaikos in the Greek Super League last season and are seeded in the Europa League third qualifying round.
