Alan Hutton reckons Celtic don't need to add another central defender with reports in Japan suggesting a transfer fee has been agreed for Yuki Kobayashi.
Ange Postecoglou has used his knowledge of the Far East to his advantage since his arrival in Glasgow bringing in Kyogo Furuhashi last summer before completing a triple J-League swoop last January to land Reo Hatate, Daizen Maeda and Yosuki Ideguchi. It's claimed he is ready to dive in once again and do a deal with Vissel Kobe for stopper Kobayashi.
Cameron Carter-Vickers has been a rock at the heart of the Celtic backline since arriving on loan from Tottenham before a big money fee was shelled out to land him permanently. He formed a solid partnership with Carl Starfelt last term and has since built another strong rapport with Moritz Jenz - with the Swede out injured but back in training.
