Once great Dane: Graveson has not featured as a regular in the Celtic team since his move from Real Madrid

The 32-year-old signed from Real Madrid in August 2006 but was unable to establish himself in the first team at Celtic.

He returned to former club Everton on loan last season but failed to win a permanent move to Goodison.

Gravesen was given a surprise start in a pre-season friendly against Manchester City but was not involved in either SPL game against St Mirren and DundeeUnited.

A statement on the club's official website, www.celtifc.net, read: 'Celtic Football Club, Thomas Gravesen and Thomas's representatives have agreed that he will part company with the club.

'Thomas wishes Celtic every success and, likewise, the club wishes Thomas all the very best for the future.'
