Brendan Rodgers remained coy over any possible Celtic transfer swoops for Daniel Podence or Ryan Fraser.
The Premier League duo have both been linked with moves to Parkhead this summer.
However, Rodgers refused to give anything away when he was probed on whether he could offer any information on the speculation over the pair.
When asked about any news on a potential move for Wolves winger Podence, Rodgers said: "No. None at all."
And then pressed for any information on the possible interest in Fraser, Rodgers commented: "None at all."
Rodgers did however comment on recent reports suggesting Celtic are keen to tie down Liel Abada and Reo Hatate to new contracts.
Both players still have three years left on their contracts but Rodgers admitted their representatives will be in contact with the club.
He said: "Well, they are both talented players and both are very much a part of what we want to do.
"Both of them have three years left on their deals so they are not up for renewal but they are both players whose agents will be talking with the club."
It comes as Rodgers also opened up on the tweaked roles for Matt O'Riley and Callum McGregor since his return to the club in the summer.
He said: "Probably just adding extra players in the build-up. Matt is what I would call a hybrid player. Rather than being always up there, he can come down to support when the team is under pressure.
"He can also arrive into the game and there are certain players who if they are up too high, too early can't get their body working. He is a player who is fantastic with his body and how he takes the ball. By also arriving that little bit later it allows him to see the picture develop and then he can get into the right spaces.
"That is just about timing and positioning and likewise with Callum. He is used to playing as a single midfielder and sometimes if you get him pressed then you might need somebody else beside you. If you do then that affects the full-back. Sometimes the full-backs will be in sometimes they will be outside. It is just adapting to small tweaks but when you have been used to playing a certain way and the principles are very much the same - fast tempo.
"The modern game at the highest level is about changing the rhythm of the game as well. We only play fast, direct football but if a team is sitting deep you have to attract them out to find new spaces."
