Celtic boss Neil Lennon refused to be drawn on speculation surrounding a move for Shane Duffy.
The Irishman has been strongly linked with a move to Parkhead with reports the club have opened talks with the defender.
Lennon is keen to add another centre-half after the departure of Jozo Simunovic and Duffy, who is a die hard Celtic fan, appears to be the top candidate.
But when Lennon was asked about any potential deal for the 28-year-old, he refused to give anything away.

He said bluntly: “Look, guys, I keep repeating myself: I’m not going to talk about players until they’re in the building.
“You get a rumour here, speculation there; about players going, players coming in.
“I’m not prepared to comment on any player who is affiliated with another club until they’re sat next to me.”
