Former Norway striker Jan Aage Fjortoft feels that Celtic should be a little worried about having to play Rosenborg in the Champions League.

After seeing off Linfield in the second qualifying round, Brendan Rodgers' Scottish champions now have a tie against Norwegian giants Rosenborg in the agenda, starting with hosting the Trondheim-based outfit next Wednesday.




Fjortoft admits that Rosenborg are not as good as they once were, with the Norwegians regular Champions League group stage participants from the mid-1990s until the mid-2000s, but he still thinks that Celtic should have cause for concern.

The former striker wrote on Twitter: "So Celtic, here come Rosenborg.
 


"Not as good as in their best days, but still something that should make you a bit worried", Fjortoft added.
