The transfer window has been a frustrating one to say the least for Celtic.
Despite seven new arrivals at Celtic Park, the Hoops have missed out on several key targets.
Brendan Rodgers wants more signings and work is being done to ensure all positions are covered.
A centre-back and new wide players are the key areas that need filling and it seems that they are close to completing their eighth signing of the summer.
Jahmai Simpson-Pusey spotted at Celtic Park for St Mirren game
Jahmai Simpson-Pusey has agreed to join Celtic on loan and it seems that confirmation of his arrival will be imminent.
Ahead of the season opener against St Mirren, many supporters spotted Simpson-Pusey inside Celtic Park.
The 19-year-old was even wearing the Celtic tracksuit which suggests that the move is a done deal, and he will be ready to feature for the Hoops in the coming weeks.
Pep Guardiola is a huge fan of Simpson-Pusey and the Manchester City boss believes he will gain a rich footballing education in Glasgow and under Rodgers.
Jahmai Simpson-Pusey will fight with two other Celtic stars for one position
Cameron Carter-Vickers certainly won’t be getting dropped unless he is injured, which means that Simpson-Pusey will find himself in a three-way battle to partner him in defence.
Liam Scales was given the nod ahead of Auston Trusty despite the latter looking like one of Celtic’s best players in pre-season.
There is no guarantee that the 19-year-old will be the nailed-on starter but given the inconsistencies Scales and Trusty have shown over time, the Man City youngster could soon become a regular.
