Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou refuses to 'confirm or deny' Kevin Nisbet interest

Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou has refused to confirm or deny the club are pursuing a cash plus player swap deal for Hibs striker Kevin Nisbet.

This morning PLZ reported that the Hoops were "keen" on a move for the Scotland international, which would also see out-of-favour striker Leigh Griffiths make a move back to Edinburgh, where he spent two years on loan from Wolves between 2011-2013.

And Postecoglu, who completed the signing of Croatian full-back Josip Juranovic from Polish champions Legia Warsaw today, wouldn't confirm or deny an interest in the Cambuslang man.

Addressing the question of Nisbet ahead of Celtic's clash with St Mirren, the Australian said: "I ain't quashing, or denying or confirming, y'know.

"I was really happy to talk about Josip today because I'd been sitting on the fence with one. I don't like sitting on the fence.

"I prefer to talk about the ones we have done.

"There's still some work we're doing off the field.

"Hopefully we will be able to make some announcements in the next few days."

When asked if he was confident more deals would be coming, Postecoglou added: "Absolutely, for sure."
