Report: Celtic close to signing Ryan Christie, Jozo Simunovic

Celtic are reportedly close to completing deals for youngsters Ryan Christie and Jozo Simunovic.

Celtic are reportedly close to completing deals for Ryan Christie and Jozo Simunovic.

According to the Daily Record, Celtic have agreed a £4m deal with Dinamo Zagreb for goalkeeper Simunovic, but his transfer will have to be put towards a panel as the 21-year-old does not meet the automatic criteria for a UK work visa.

Inverness Caledonian Thistle midfielder Christie, 20, is also close to completing personal terms with Ronny Delia's side.

The deal is thought to be worth £500,000 and it will see the youngster loaned back to the Highlanders for the remainder of the season.

Hoops striker Stefan Scepovic joined Getafe on a season-long loan last night, while Virgil van Dijk is expected to join Southampton before the window closes.
