This deal is moving very quickly at the minute. After the news broke last night Celtic had come in for Diego Laxalt, the story has not stood still.
This morning it appears as if the AC Milan player is on his way to London to complete a Celtic medical. As reported by Sky Sports Anthony Joseph.
Diego Laxalt is due to arrive in London to complete a medical, before signing a season-long loan deal with Celtic.

Laxalt can play as a left back, midfield left or a wing back. The 27-year-old has been capped 24 times by Uruguay and has spent the majority of his career in Italy where he has played with Olivier Ntcham at Genoa.
This deal looks as if it’s a goer barring a medical issue.
As Joseph writes, Celtic and Milan are trying to work out a future fee before the deal goes through but not 100% needed if they can’t come to an agreement.
It looks as if Celtic have finally got a good fit for their problem position, giving Greg Taylor a run for his money.
