IFK Gothenburg could yet revive their interest in unwanted Celtic keeper Vasilis Barkas after they revealed they are on the brink of signing a new No.1.
The Greek shotstopper is now third choice at Celtic behind Joe Hart and Scott Bain after falling well out of the picture following a £5 million move from AEK Athens last summer.
IFK are searching for a new keeper after selling Barkas' countryman Giannis Anestis to homeland club Panetolikos before they saw a move to land FC Copenhagen's Sten Grytebust collapse.
