Celtic are reportedly in advanced talks with goalkeeper target Balazs Toth.
Blackburn Rovers' Hungary international shotstopper has been high on the champions' list as they look to add competition for Viljami Sinisalo after the retirement of Kasper Schmeichel. Ross Doohan is currently acting as No.2 and would slide down to third choice.
Toth has a year left on his Ewood Park deal and has refused to sign a new contract, preferring to pursue a fresh start. Blackburn want around £4million to do a deal this summer.
Other clubs are interested in the 28-year-old, with Udinese and Hamburg linked.

Blackburn boss, the former Celtic player and manager Tony Mowbray, claimed he had learned from outside agent his club were selling the player.
But he added: "If the goalkeeper wants to go somewhere else, wants to win cups and trophies and wants to play in the Champions League, who am I to tell him not to? Good luck to him."
