The transfer window isn’t even open yet – but moves are already being made.
One that Celtic fans won’t want to see is Urawa Red DIamonds reported interest in bringing Kyogo back to the J-League. A mega-money offer could be on the table – with the Hoops resolve likely to also be tested over Matt O’Riley.
In terms of incomings, both Adam Idah and Paulo Bernardo’s long-term future in Glasgow remains uncertain after the end of their loans spells.
Across the city, Jose Cordoba’s move to Rangers looks to be off with the defender favouring Norwich City. However, the Light Blues’ look to be keen on adding Thomas Galdames – a Chilean left-back playing in Argentin. Borna Barisic, John Lundstram, Ryan Jack and Kemar Roofe are the big names out of contract and look set for the exit door.
Aberdeen are ready for a new era under Jimmy Thelin and they are keen on Rangers No2 Robby McCrorie. The Dons have a goalkeeper wishlist and the Scotland squad man is on it, as exclusively revealed by Record Sport.
Hearts have been busy with three pre-contracts already in the bag in the shape of Yan Dhana, Blair Spittal and James Penrice while rivals Hibs are yet to recruit a new manager but any hopes of keeping Myziane Maolida are over after he confirmed he is unlikely to return to the capital.
Derek McInnes has handed Gary Mackay-Steven a new deal at Kilmarnock while Bruce Anderson is set to check-in from Livingston as manager and striker reunite in Ayrshire after a spell together at Pittodrie.
