This week saw the announcement that Celtic and Barcelona are both set to visit Dublin for a pre-season friendly tournament this summer, but both clubs, along with other big names in European football, are set to send a team over far sooner.
Barcelona, Celtic, Lyon, Deportivo La Coruna, and West Brom are heading to Dublin for a tournament with St.Kevin's Boys, one of the most storied producers of football talent in Ireland, on Good Friday.

Fantastic stuff.
That will see St.Kevin's Boys test their skills against the best talent in Europe at their age group, which can only be a good thing and will give the lads a chance to show their talent and get recognised by some of the massive clubs in attendance.
Here's hoping Kevin's smash the tournament, and half the team sign for Barcelona so we get some Irish blood into La Masia.
Good luck to all involved.
