Ange Postecoglou expects more transfer activity at Celtic before window closes

Ange Postecoglou insists Celtic have already achieved their key recruitment objectives this summer, but he admits there is still likely to be more transfer activity before the window closes.

The Hoops have signed last season’s loan stars Jota and Cameron Carter-Vickers on permanent deals, while also bolstering the squad with keeper Benjamin Siegrist, left-back Alexandro Bernabei, centre-back Moritz Jenz and midfielder Aaron Mooy in good time for Sunday’s cinch Premiership opener at home to Aberdeen.

With a month to go until the transfer deadline, Postecoglou anticipates more business at Parkhead. “We’re happy with the ones we’ve brought in,” said the manager. “There were some areas I felt we needed strengthening from a squad perspective: goalkeeper, left-back, centre-back and midfield were definitely areas that I wanted to make us a bit stronger and more robust and it’s great we’ve done that. “Re-signing Jota and Cameron on permanent deals was also an important part of what we are trying to build.

I’m pleased with where we’re at but there’s still four weeks of the window open and we’ll still be active and agile to see where we can strengthen. “There will be some outgoings and some opportunities potentially to bring others in but there’s nothing set in stone with that.
