Celtic have been charged by Uefa over an "illicit banner" displayed during their Champions League qualifier against Israeli side Hapoel Beer Sheva.

The European governing body's rules prohibit the use of "any message that is not fit for a sports event, particularly messages that are of a political, ideological, religious, offensive or provocative nature".

Celtic have been punished eight times in five seasons for fan misconduct.

The case will be heard on 22 September.
