Ronny Deila eyes successful title defence

Ronny Deila admits that his eye is already on next season after Celtic clinched the Scottish Premiership title.

Celtic manager Ronny Deila has turned his attention to next season after his side clinched the Scottish Premiership title on Saturday afternoon.

Dundee United's 1-0 win over Aberdeen handed Celtic their fourth successive title, and Deila admits that he is keen to build on the success achieved in his first season in Glasgow.

"We have achieved a big thing - winning the league for the fourth time - and hopefully there will be more and more," the Norwegian told the club's website.

"We have worked so hard for this and finally we are there and can start thinking of next season. There is always high pressure here and I put high demands on myself as well.

"Today we just have to enjoy it and be happy that we are champions. I'm happy with a lot of the work we have done and we are going to enjoy this night and show we are champions next Sunday."

Celtic are back in action against second-placed Aberdeen next Sunday.
