More on @SkySportsNews on how this has come about, when we have it.
Celtic could now look to make their move for Alfie Doughty to shore up the left full-back position.
The midfielder is on the last year of his contract with the bhoys unwilling to over pay for Alfie.
If Celtic sign any players between now and Thursday they would be eligible to play in the Europa League playoff game but only if Neil Lennon dropped someone from his current European pool. The Scottish champions are away to Sarajevo.
