Brendan Rodgers and Celtic have yet to complete an outfield signing this summer, with only goalkeepers Kasper Schmeichel and Viljami Sinisalo officially joining so far.
Celtic are expected to sign midfielder Paulo Bernardo permanently after his successful loan from Benfica last season.
Rodgers has expressed a desire to bring in “ready-made” players to the club, balancing the current strategy of signing players for minimal fees and selling them for profit.
Recent targets include Hearts striker Lawrence Shankland and Wolves full-back Hugo Bueno.
Celtic are now reportedly preparing a permanent offer to sign Manchester United midfielder Hannibal Mejbri.
This would be a blow to Rangers, who were also in advanced talks to sign the Tunisia international. Mejbri, who has 12 months left on his Manchester United contract, can play as a central midfielder, attacking midfielder, or right-winger.
He recently impressed on loan at Birmingham City and is currently with Manchester United on their pre-season tour in the USA.
