Seville will provide the opposition for Celtic in an end-of-season friendly to mark Henrik Larsson's departure from the new Scottish champions.
It is appropriate that the Spanish side will be at Celtic Park on 25 May.
Links were formed with Seville when the city hosted last season's Uefa Cup final between Celtic and Porto.
Larsson, who has become the third-highest goalscorer in Celtic's history, has said that Spain is his preferred destination once he departs.
And the date of the game also marks the 37th anniversary of the 1967 European Cup final win over Inter Milan.
Larsson joined Celtic, then under Wim Jansen, in 1997 for just £650,000 from Feyenoord.
He has yet to decide which club he will join at the end of his current Celtic contract.
The 32-year-old has also to announce whether he will bow to public pressure and come out of international retirement to play for Sweden at Euro 2004 in Portugal.
