After a couple of wins in their first two pre-season games under Ange Postecoglou, Celtic have struggled in the past two. They played out a goalless draw against Bristol City and lost 1-0 at the hands of Preston North End.
As a result, it is clear that there is a lot of work still to be done at Parkhead and a number of positions that need strengthening at both ends of the pitch. The club have made quite a few signings recently and it will be interesting to see how they perform for the Hoops, but they cannot stop there.
Kristijan Lovric is someone who has been linked with a move to Parkhead in recent times. And he might have dropped a transfer hint on social media regarding the possibility of a move.
As reported by Glasgow Live, Lovric followed Celtic as well as a fan page for the club on Instagram.

Could Lovric be set to join Celtic?
Social media activity of players has certainly become something to watch out for in modern times when it comes to transfers. Now, it remains to be seen whether there is something more to Lovric following the club.
He could certainly be a good signing. According to stats from Transfermarkt, he scored 18 goals and provided 7 assists in 32 appearances for HNK Gorica last season. He has also scored 10 goals or more and provided 7 assists or more in each of his three seasons at the club. Thus, the 25-year-old is certainly a consistent performer.
The Hoops have recently signed Liel Abada, who mostly operates on the right wing while Lovric generally plays on the left wing. And both of them are very similar type of players in the sense that they take a lot of shots on goal, which is a big reason behind them scoring a lot of goals. And could Postecoglou be looking for such a duo on the wings at Parkhead?
