There could be three or four new faces arriving at Celtic this evening, with Anderlecht striker Kasper Dolberg and Hammarby winger Sebastian Tounekti targets.
However, there are strong suggestions Dolberg could now be heading back to former club Ajax.
They're also looking at Sekou Mara from Strasbourg and Crystal Palace winger Jesurun Rak-Sakyi, who has been linked with Rangers.
Adam Idah and Yang Hyun-Jun are expected to head out.
The worst Old Firm derby ever?published at 13:55 BST 1 September

Rangers (0.15) and Celtic (0.17) ended Sunday's derby with a combined expected goals rating of 0.32. In short, that is bad. Very bad.
In fact, it is the lowest total accumulated in a Premiership game since the xG stat became a thing in the 2019-20 season.
Essentially, that means the quality of chances both sides created amounted to very, very little.
Rangers had no shots on target - the first time they had failed to do so in a league game since an Old Firm derby in January 2021.
Meanwhile, Celtic had just two. At the half-time whistle, Rodgers' side had not even attempted an effort - a first for them in a league match since November 2017.
That also means they are the only Premiership team to fail to register a first-half goal attempt against Rangers this term.
Motherwell had two, Dundee had three and St Mirren had eight. Even third-tier Alloa Athletic had multiple efforts in the first half of their League Cup defeat at Ibrox earlier this month.
Rodgers' men had played extra-time and penalties in their Champions League exit on Tuesday before a 3,500-mile trip home from Kazakhstan, but that is still a sobering statistic for a Celtic side struggling at the top end of the pitch.
Rangers, however, can take comfort from that given they were a defensive mess in their six-goal defeat away to Club Brugge on Wednesday.
"I was really proud with the response," Martin told BBC Scotland. "Especially the guys who haven't played much recently.
"We need to show that level of togetherness all the time. We've got something to build on."
'So, so dull' - your viewspublished at 11:07 BST 1 September

We asked for your thoughts as Celtic and Rangers played out a goalless draw in the Scottish Premiership.
Here's what some of you had to say:
Dave: Celtic have to have forgotten how to play. They were poor - so too were Rangers. I had a chance of a ticket but turned it down, thank God. Worst derby for a long time. Two poor teams creating a very poor game.
Billy: Worst ever Old Firm game. Both played like pub teams. Why does McGregor always have to pass backwards even when we're outside the opposition box? Very poor, no imagination. Brendan Rodgers, the players and the board need to sort themselves out and quickly.
Alec: Until Rodgers changes his tactics and drops or changes certain players, then it's not going to get much better for Celtic. People saying the forwards aren't creating enough obviously aren't looking at our midfield going forward or defending.
Peter: Absolutely dire, where are the required signings?
John: Rodgers says we lost all our creativity? I'd suggest that he had it in his control to keep that quality. All he had to do was stop buying substandard players. He has failed miserably.
Gordy: That was one of the worst Celtic performances I have seen in an Old Firm game. We have no creativity, no confidence and no ability in attack. We made a very mediocre team look good as we did not press them at any point in the game. Unless we get the signings we need this could be a long unsuccessful season.
Thomas: Once again, Celtic fail to deliver in a big game and were unable to break down the poorest Rangers side we've seen in years. The Scottish Cup final exposed Celtic's inability to break down stubborn sides, and we're seeing that same ineffectiveness on repeat at the moment. It's just all so, so dull.

Rangers 0-0 Celtic: What Rodgers saidpublished at 14:26 BST 31 August

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers told BBC Scotland: "Didn't think it was a good game at all. Positive for us, we've defended well in the main at the start of the season, been very resolute, which is a positive.
"We didn't have any shots on goal against us. But our offensive game is nowhere near the level I'd like it to be at. It was a game that lacked quality."
On why his team are struggling in their attacking play: "We've lost players that connected the game for us. When you go through a spell of games you're not scoring, it can affect the other guys and they don't quite make the forward pass and they make the safe pass.
"That creativity has come out the team and we need to find those connections again. I'm very confident we will improve. We have to. That's not the Celtic way of playing."
On dips of form for Reo Hatate and Daizen Maeda: "Competition is your best coach at times, we need to find that. Sometimes you need that stimulus of competition. That's clearly what we need."
The Celtic boss had no update on the potential departure of Adam Idah.

Aberdeen have completed the signing of Scotland youth international Mitchel Frame from Celtic for an undisclosed fee.
The 19-year-old has signed a four-year deal at Pittodrie after making just one solitary appearance for Celtic's first team.
Frame, who plays at left-back, came on for the last 15 minutes of Celtic's 2-1 win over Feyenoord in the Champions League group stage back in December 2023.
Most of his experience so far comes in the Lowland League, but he has also made numerous appearances for Scotland's under-17 and under-19 youth teams.
"We have been monitoring Mitchel's progress for some time, and we are very pleased we have eventually managed to sign him", said Dons boss Jimmy Thelin.
"He is a forward-thinking full back, with pace and physicality, and he fits well with how we want to play and what our expectations are of our full backs. His arrival will also give us more resilience and stability in that area of the pitch.
"He's an exciting talent and we look forward to working with him to help him release his future potential."
Engels ready to win back starting spot at Celticpublished at 11:47 BST 30 August

Arne Engels believes he is up to the challenge of winning back his starting spot at Celtic.
The midfielder joined the Parkhead club last summer from Augsburg and scored 10 goals in 52 appearances for Brendan Rodgers' side.
But the Belgian has lost his place to this year's summer signing Benjamin Nygren, who has scored three goals in three Premiership appearances.
However, Engels is determined to regain his place in the team.
"I wanted to start more games, of course I wanted to play more," the 21-year-old said. "Every player here wants to play a lot of games and wants to play everything.
"It's now up to me to work myself back into the team and show what I can bring and what maybe they are missing. That's just up to me to now show it in training and show it when I'm coming on.
"If you're at a big club, then there will always be competition in every position. Of course we have a lot of good players here, but I don't need to be afraid of somebody here.
"I just need to work on myself, work on the things I need to improve and I'm sure I will bounce back and be back in the team.
"I've had those challenges already in the whole of my career. I know what I need to do to go back into the team and what I need to do to get better.
"So it's not something new I'm really stressing about. I know what I'm capable of and I know what I can bring to the team and I hope I can do that in the next games."
