Luis Palma is on board as the winger secured his five-year deal but more are inbound before the clock strikes midnight on Friday.
Celtic fans demanded transfer fireworks in the final week and the Premiership champions are delivering a signing spark.
Luis Palma is on board as the winger secured his five-year deal and the iconic number 7. And now three more moves are on the to do list before the window goes under lock on key on Friday at midnight. Brendan Rodgers craved quality and he appears to be closing in on key targets. Paulo Bernardo is inbound from Benfica. An initial loan is about to be rubber-stamped and Celtic know the benefits of options to buy as they struck gold with Jota under similar circumstances.
Nat Phillips is the man who will answer the question to Celtic's central defensive crisis. The 26-year-old enjoys cult status at Liverpool and with Maik Nawrocki, Cameron Carter Vickers and Stephen Welsh on the shelf – it will now be on the big man from Bolton to rise to the challenge. A SOS mission is nothing new to Phillips who earned acclaim for his displays amid Liverpool's defensive injury crisis two seasons ago.
With Palma done and dusted and Phillips and Bernardo to follow the next necessity for the Premiership champions is a left back. It's understood the search is on to find a competitor for Greg Taylor. Kieran Tierney was admired by his former club and the position is needing to be strengthened with Alexandro Bernabei yet to convince he is the long-term answer with his displays on the pitch a bigger concern than his inability to hear his wake-up alarm in the eyes of many supporters.
But one position which appears will wait is goalkeeper. Benjy Siegrist is expected to stay after Record Sport revealed interest in Cagliari’s Serbian keeper Boris Radunovic. Joe Hart will remain in between the sticks for another season after being backed by his boss. And don’t rule out a striker being brought in to provide competition for Kyogo.
