Celtic transfer state of play as Giorgos Giakoumakis tug of war sparks Atlanta rethink and late striker option alive

It's crunch time in the winter transfer window with just under 36 hours remaining for Scottish Premiership teams to finish their business ahead of the second half of the season.

For Celtic, incomings appear to be done and dusted, ending in just the four additions for Ange Postecoglou. Alistair Johnston, Yuki Kobayashi, Oh Hyeon-gyu and Tomoki Iwata have walked through the doors at Lennoxtown, replacing the likes of Josip Juranovic and Scott Robertson with the departures of other squad players likely.

The Hoops are nine points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership with just 15 games to go, and whilst two of those games will be the Old Firm derby, it's a sizeable gap for Rangers to try and close. The squad Postecoglou has is more than good enough to even extend that lead - but with Giorgos Giakoumakis potentially leaving, question marks could be upheld from the more sceptical Hoops fans.
