Celtic close to completing Timothy Weah deal.
Celtic are getting closer to wrapping up the loan signing of Timothy Weah, The Scottish Sun report.
Weah is set to undergo a medical within the next 48 hours before the club formally announce his signature.
The Scottish Sun claim Celtic are growing increasingly hopeful a £2 million deal can be struck for young Ivory Coast striker Vakoun Issa Bayo.
Competition has increased for Bayo’s signature since Celtic first registered interest but Celtic are said to be confident of winning the race.
Manager Brendan Rodgers had made clear that bringing in new strikers is his priority after going into the recent Old Firm game playing young winger Mikey Johnston as a makeshift forward.
Celtic completed their first signing of the transfer window at the weekend as they signed Oliver Burke from West Bromwich Albion on loan.
Rivals Rangers have already clinched four transfers, two of which will only join up at the end of the season.
The two teams are level on points at the top of the table, but Celtic have a game in hand.
