Brendan Rodgers is nearing the completion of his seventh summer acquisition with Luis Palma, as both parties have reached a tentative agreement.

Palma is poised to fortify the left-wing, paving the way for Maeda to contest for the central striker position.

But Rodgers’ ambitions don’t end there. He has eyes on bolstering the backline with another central defender and a left-back.

Additionally, Rodgers has evaluated Celtic’s goalkeeping situation and is intent on recruiting another shot-stopper.

Including Palma’s imminent signing, Rodgers might introduce up to five new faces to the squad before the crucial Derby at Ibrox this Sunday.

The transfer window will draw to a close on Friday at midnight, with less than a week remaining of the summer transfer window. It’s set to be a busy week, hopefully.
