With deadline day fast approaching, these are going to be busy few days for Celtic. Of course, the focus has been on signing a striker, especially with Swansea City on the verge of signing Adam Idah. That move is only expected to go through if the Scottish champions are able to bring in a replacement first. They are trying to engineer a late summer move for Kasper Dolberg with Anderlecht believed to be open to an exit after missing out on European football.

Celtic have been successful in getting a couple of late window signings so far. They have officially announced the arrivals of Belgian winger Michel-Ange Balikwisha and Uruguayan international left-back Marcelo Saracchi.

While one left-back arrives at Celtic, another is set to depart. And it might be the best step for all parties involved, as he was not getting any game time at Parkhead.

Celtic B's official account have announced that Mitchel Frame has joined Scottish Premiership side, Aberdeen. It is on a permanent basis.

While coming through the youth ranks at Celtic, Frame was very highly rated and many felt that he was bound to be a fixture in the first team at some point. But that chance has not come in for him, which has been the case for so many talented youngsters at Parkhead before him.

We can only wish Frame the best of luck as he heads to Aberdeen. Hopefully, he gets a proper chance to succeed there.

As for Celtic, this is another instance of a talented youngster failing to make the grade at Parkhead. This has been a problem for the Hoops for a long time and sooner or later, they will need to find a solution for this issue. There is absolutely no doubt about that.
