Celtic have reportedly won the race to sign the Paris Saint-Germain forward.
According to a report from French publication RMC, Paris Saint-Germain youngster Timothy Weah is set to join Celtic on loan for the rest of the season, having turned down a whole host of French clubs.
Hoops boss Brendan Rodgers will be desperate to bolster his ranks at Parkhead during the winter break, especially in the attacking department, and Weah, 18, could be just the ticket.
RMC claims that the United States international is keen to join Celtic, with the idea of working under Rodgers thought to be a key factor behind his decision.
The French media outlet also claims that Kolo Toure played a key role in convincing the teenager to join the Hoops.
Good signing for Celtic?
Weah is incredibly quick, and standing at 6ft 1in tall, he is also strong in the air.
The American has scored six goals in 17 appearances for PSG’s senior and youth sides, and although he is a bit rough around the edges, he has plenty of potential.
The striker could be somewhat of a surprise factor for Celtic, and he will surely be incredibly hungry to prove himself on the biggest stage.
