Celtic youngster Ben McPherson is reportedly set to head out on loan.
The young right-back wants to gain first-team experience.
And the Daily Record states that Queen's Park are closing in on a deal with the Hoops for the 19-year-old.
The defender will join the Scottish championship side on loan as they aim to bolster their squad for another tilt at promotion to the big time.
The report says that the Scotland U21 international had the chance to join Austrian side Admira Wacker on loan, but has opted to stay put in Scotland.
The deal to join the Spiders could be completed in time for their second game of the league season at home to Arbroath on Saturday.
McPherson has just come back from Celtic’s first-team tour of Japan and is keen to kick on.

Meanwhile, Carl Starfelt is set to undergo a medical ahead of his switch to Celta Vigo.
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has today confirmed that the defender is on his way to Spain.
The Swedish defender last week made it clear that he saw his future away from the Scottish champions.
And it would appear a deal between the Hoops and the La Liga outfit will go through sooner rather than later.
Rodgers told Sky Sports: "He's travelled for a medical but there's nothing confirmed as of yet on that. But we do expect it to go through. He's been a great servant to the club. I understand and the club understands his position."
