Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou has detailed the current state of play in terms of transfers in and out of the club.
The Scottish champions are reportedly closing in on a deal for 21-year-old South Korea striker Oh Hyeon-gyu, having also showed interest in his international colleague Cho Gue-sung.
When asked for an update, Postecoglou said: “At the moment, progress on incomings and outgoings but nothing confirmed yet.
"Obviously we are getting to the tail end of the window and I expect progress over the next few days.”

The Australian was also quizzed on the future of Hoops striker Giorgos Giakoumakis who has been the subject of much transfer speculation.
He did not feature for the Hoops during the 4-0 victory over St Mirren due to an injury and the Australian has stated that he hopes the Greece international remains at Parkhead.
"Until I know or hear otherwise, I expect them all to be Celtic players but there has been progress with all those kinds of issues," he continued.
"I guess over the next few days we will see how it all plays out.”
The Parkhead boss made his feelings clear when asked about the striker's future after the fixture against Buddies, saying: "I am just dealing with what is in front of me until I hear otherwise or something significant happens.
"He was here tonight, mate, so you could have asked him yourself. He's still very much a part of our set up. He would have been involved tonight if he was not injured."
