This summer, Premiership winners Celtic are expected to bring in an additional £40 million, while Mikey Johnston is close to joining West Brom.

Sheffield United were left disappointed as Celtic turned down a £3 million deal from the Baggies and Burnley. The Republic of Ireland player is currently travelling to the Hawthorns in order to obtain his permanent departure from Parkhead. And Celtic, who are looking to trade for Auston Trusty and Arne Engels, are flush with cash after Matt O’Riley became their highest-ever sale at £26 million this summer. Celtic is also considering the £4 million-rated Alvyn Sanches, a midfielder from Switzerland.

Additionally, the seven permanent exits combined with the minimal payments for players like Yuki Kobayashi and Benjamin Siegrist are expected to result in a record haul for a team that plans to throw caution to the wind in the last few hours. And now, in his third transfer window since moving back to Glasgow’s east end, Brendan Rodgers is aiming for a spectacular finish as he searches for the quality he so desperately wants.
