Celtic are interested in signing Xavier Mbuyamba from Volendam, according to a report.
The 21-year-old has already earned comparisons to former Hoops far Virgil van Dijk in the budding years of his career.
And Sky Sports claim that Celtic's scouting team are keeping a close eye on the centre-back.
The younger defender has been very impressive in the Eredivisie for his club. He's made 26 appearances this term, notching five goals in the process, showing his attacking threat too.
Mbuyamba was released by Chelsea just last year before making the move to the Dutch top flight.
Transfer guru Fabrizio Romano states that the likes of Ajax and AZ Alkmaar are also interested in the player.
It comes as Postecoglou looks set to bolster his squad ahead of the new campaign, with Champions League readymade players on the wanted list.
Meanwhile, Steven McLean was quite right to ignore Celtic's claims for a penalty during their loss to Rangers on Saturday.
The referee waved away loud shouts from the Hoops players after Connor Goldson appeared to handle the ball.
However, the Gers defender was on the deck while the ball struck him.
The incident wasn't checked by Greg Aitken on VAR, despite the strong protestation from those in green and white.
And former top Premier League official Dermot Gallagher believes McLean was spot on with his decision-making.
