Celtic are back in action on Sunday when they face Kilmarnock in their second league game of the season. The Bhoys narrowly took care of business in their opener, beating Dundee, while Killie lost an entertaining clash with St Johnstone.
As preparations continue for Sunday's game, work on transfers continues behind the scenes, and Celtic are playing catch-up having only signed two new players so far. Here we round up all the latest transfer gossip from around the Premiership.
Celtic priced out of Ghedjemis
Celtic will almost certainly be priced out of a move for Frosinone winger Fares Ghedjemis, who has been a target since January. The Bhoys came close to signing the winger in January only for him to decide to stay with his current club until the end of the window.
Celtic and Rangers have tried to sign him this summer, and Martin O'Neill confirmed Celtic's interest, while French club Monaco have also been pushing for a deal, submitting more than one bid. According to TuttoMercatoWeb, Ghedjemis' valuation has now skyrocketed to €20million. Celtic are closing in on a deal to sign Haissem Hassan, and it's almost certain they won't spend €20million on another winger.
Rangers could miss out on Aydin
Rangers have been pushing for a deal to sign Fenerbahce winger Oguz Aydin this summer, but they could now be set to miss out amid intense competition.
Journalist Pete O'Rourke has told Football Insider: "Obviously wingers are a key priority for Rangers. Aydin is the latest name to be linked with a move, but it's not an easy deal to do. There is competition for the Turkey international’s signature, there is interest from the likes of Feyenoord, Espanol and Hamburg for Aydin as well.
"I don't think Fenerbahce would want to let him leave on the cheap either, he still has two years to run on his contract there, so it's a difficult deal to do for Rangers. But they're obviously keen to bring in Aydin to add to their squad before the close of the window, it just depends on whether they can get a deal over the line in the circumstances."
Aberdeen wrap up Ntelo deal
Aberdeen have confirmed the signing of 'versatile' forward Mitchy Ntelo. The attacker makes the move to Scotland from Swiss side Yverdon-Sport on an undisclosed deal.
Aberdeen boss Stephen Robinson has said: "We've tracked Mitchy for some time and we're delighted to finally bring him to Aberdeen. He is tall, exceptionally quick and, importantly for us, is equally comfortable playing as a central striker or in the wide areas."
