Game OK, Celtic having brought in a winger (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cockatiel

'winger' is the definition.
(cockatiel is a kind of bird)

'game ok celtic having brought in a' is the wordplay.
'game' is an anagram indicator (solving anagrams is a game).
'having brought in' indicates putting letters inside.
'ok'+'celtic'='okceltic'
'okceltic' with letters rearranged gives 'cocktiel'.
'cocktiel' going around 'a' is 'COCKATIEL'.

(Other definitions for cockatiel that I've seen before include "18's [BIRD]" , "Small crested Australian parrot" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
