POLICE in the United States are investigating an alleged sex attack on a Celtic Boys Club player during a trip led by paedo coach Frank Cairney.

Detectives have launched a probe this week after receiving fresh information about the Celtic Boys Club’s tour in America in 1991.

Serial beast Cairney, 84, was jailed in February for preying on eight boys in his care in the 1980s.

He led a group of 20 youngsters to New Jersey in the summer of 1991 to mark 25 years of the Celtic Boys Club.

And it’s emerged cops in the US state are now looking into claims of an alleged sex attack during the trip, The Times reports.

Former Celtic chairman Jack McGinn admitted he was told that Cairney had abused a teenager on a tour to New Jersey in 1991 - 30 years before he was nailed for his crimes.

It promoted Mr McGinn to call a meeting at Parkhead where he accepted Cairney's resignation.

He claims he urged Boys Club officials to alert police but they did not, allowing Cairney to walk free, while "pressure at work" was cited as the reason for his departure.

George King, chief of police for Kearny, New Jersey, said: “The Kearny police department detective bureau is reviewing this information and is in consultation with the Hudson County prosecutors office.”

We told in February how Celtic face being sued in America amid claims Cairney abused kids on footie trips.

Cairney was convicted of sickening attacks on young boys while running St Columba's Boys Guild in Viewpark, Lanarkshire, and the under-16 team at Celtic BC.

Cairney is one of four paedophiles to be exposed for abusing kids at Celtic Boys Club.

Founder Jim Torbett, 71, was jailed for a second time over the abuse of young players in November last year.

Jim McCafferty admitted preying on ten teenage boys between 1972 and 1996.

Former chairman Gerald King, 66, was also convicted earlier this year.

Celtic has been conducting an internal investigation into abuse at the Boys Club for two years.

That this House notes the persistent calls for an inquiry into claims that young boys were abused at Celtic Boys Club over a number of years; acknowledges that several men have been convicted for sex offences while working at the Boys Club; and supports the calls made in recent weeks for Celtic FC to follow clubs such as Manchester City and agree that an inquiry would be a suitable if long overdue attempt to bring some form of closure to survivors.
