Ange Postecoglou could have filled a problem position this summer with the addition of Aaron Mooy, but the arrival could be bad news for Parkhead misfit James McCarthy.
Nir Bitton and Tom Rogic departed at the end of last season with Ange Postecoglou moving swiftly to bolster his ranks in the midfield. Forgotten Ismailia Soro also left the club having fallen out of favour under the Australian boss, with a new midfield enforcer appearing to shoot up the transfer wish list this summer during the pursuit of Vinicius Souza ramping up.
Souza has been tracked by a clutch of clubs this summer with PSV, Real Betis, Schalke and Ajax among the clubs credited with an interest in the Brazilian midfield anchor, before he opted to join La Liga side Espanyol on loan for next season. With the likes of Mohammad Abu Fani and Fausto Vera also linked with a move to Glasgow's east end, many had expected a hard-tackling midfielder to be the next addition through the door.
