Celtic have reached a 'verbal agreement' over the signing of Canada World Cup star Alistair Johnston, according to a report.
Ange Postecoglou hinted that he was looking to bring at least a couple of fresh faces in the door ahead of the January transfer window and after securing highly-regarded left-sided defender Yuki Kobayashi on a five-year deal from Vissel Kobe in his latest J-League raid, it looks like he's about to add another defender to his ranks.
Respected transfer guru Fabrizio Romano wrote on Twitter: "Celtic have reached verbal agreement with Montreal to sign Alistair Johnston on permanent deal, now waiting for final details. Johnston’s contract will be discussed in order to get the deal done and sealed."
