Kasper Hauge, the 25-year-old Danish striker, looks set to join Celtic after the Scottish club held talks with Bodo/Glimt over a deal worth up to £7m. Hauge did not feature as a substitute in Bodo/Glimt's last match, in which the Norwegian team achieved a significant 3-0 victory over Hamkam, amid reports that Celtic intend to sign the player who has been followed since last January.

In another context, Japanese striker Daisen Maeda arrived in London on Thursday to undergo medical examinations before moving to Ipswich Town for 10 million pounds, and it is expected that the player’s departure from Celtic will be confirmed on Friday.

As for Celtic, the club is still seeking to meet Paderborn club's valuation of the player Mika Bauer, as it made an offer worth 4 million pounds, but the German club prefers to allow the player to leave for free next summer rather than sell him for an amount less than his valuation.

Celtic have expressed interest in signing two players from Lazio, namely striker Gustav Isaksen and winger Matteo Cancellieri. Las Palmas are also asking for more than £4.3 million plus a resale clause for goalkeeper Dinko Horkas, who is linked to the Scottish club.

On the other hand, Celtic is seeking to keep its player Rio Hatate, who is also on the radar of West Ham United, along with defender John Sutter from Rangers, and his brother, Australian defender Harry Sutter.

As for Rangers, player Danilo arrived in Brazil and is scheduled to undergo medical examinations on Friday to complete his loan move to Botafogo. AC Milan is also close to completing a deal to sign defender Senkhon Diawara from Troyes, who has received interest from Rangers and Basel.

Forest Green Rovers boss Robbie Savage has confirmed that the club will make a record sale for midfielder Laurent Mendy if personal terms are agreed with Heart of Midlothian. Talks have begun to transfer young defender Gadel Katongo to Aberdeen FC, but financial matters may make reaching an agreement with Kayserispor FC difficult.

Dundee United are still waiting for Major League Soccer to approve the loan signing of Philip N'Digna from Philadelphia Union. Manager Jim Goodwin has confirmed that he will fight to keep Lorenzo Sassetti, who has become the youngest player in Dundee United's history.

In other news, Jagiellonia Białystok has confirmed that American player AZ Jackson has refused to return to Poland for pre-season training after spending the second half of last season with Vancouver Whitecaps.

What's next?

Daizen Maeda's move to Ipswich is expected to be confirmed in the next few days, which will impact Celtic's line-up. Celtic also continues to search for reinforcements, especially in light of its interest in including players from Lazio. On the other hand, Danilo from Rangers will undergo medical examinations before completing his move to Botafogo, which opens the way for Rangers to search for alternatives.
