Celtic are set to make their fifth summer addition with the arrival of Aaron Mooy.
The 31-year-old - who was capped for Australia by Ange Postecoglou - is set to put pen to paper on a dream move to Parkhead and become the newest arrival at the Scottish champions.
Cameron Carter-Vickers and Jota have both turned impressive loan spells into permanent deals while Alexandro Bernabei and Benjamin Siegrist have also arrived through the door to strengthen the first team ranks.
Mooy has previously played in Scotland with St Mirren and was recently plying his trade in China with Shanghai Port but has quit the club. A move to the Hoops could help the midfielder rubber stamp his place in Graham Arnold's squad for the World Cup finals later this year after a play-off shootout win over Peru. A number of past and present SPFL stars will be hoping to be on that plane to Qatar with the Socceroos.

It's set to be a big season for Celtic as they bid to retain the Premiership crown they won from rivals Rangers last season and scoop domestic silverware. They also will compete with Europe's elite after earning direct entry to the Champions League group stages after their league title success.
Asked about a possible move for Mooy previously, Postecoglou said: “Aaron’s a fantastic footballer, somebody I know really well.
“I’m sure he will get picked up, he’s a good player, a very talented player.”
Celtic have two more pre-season friendlies to play before the competitive action returns.
They face Legia Warsaw on Wednesday night before hosting Norwich City at Parkhead on Saturday.
It's then all eyes on Aberdeen as the Hoops kick off their title defence on Sunday, July 31.
