Greg Taylor reveals the 'big factor' behind Celtic exit, refutes Kieran Tierney claim
Now, Sky Sports claims that Celtic have agreed a fee in the region of £250,000 to sign the player.
A left-sided defender, it remains to be seen what Inamura's role in Brendan Rodgers' squad will look like.
His impending arrival comes amid the departure of full-back Greg Taylor.
His six-year Celtic stay ended on Tuesday as he joined Greek top-flight side PAOK.
Opening up on his Parkhead exit, Taylor told Sky Sports: "It's probably the toughest decision I have had in my career.
"When I left Kilmarnock in 2019 it was that bit easier, I was progressing and I wanted to go and play for the biggest team in Scotland.
"At that time, there probably wasn't many who believed I would play as many games as I did, but the one person who really did was myself. I was lucky to go and play 200 plus games for Celtic which was unbelievable.
"So, it wasn't easy - there was a million things to weigh up - but I just felt it was the right time to do it. I wanted to play regularly, and that is probably the big factor."
