Celtic have reportedly had an offer accepted for Hammarby's Sebastian Tounekti.
The winger has been widely linked with a move to Parkhead recently.
And now, according to Swedish outlet Expressen, Tounekti will join the Scottish champions for a fee in the region of £5.2million. He is set to pen a four-year deal in Glasgow's east end worth around £738,000 per annum.

It is said that the clubs are now in a race against time to get the deal done. As soon as Tounekti gets the go-ahead, he will fly to Scotland to undergo a medical and sign his contract.
Born in Norway, the attacker, who predominantly operates on the left wing, has represented Tunisia twice.
He only joined Hammarby at the beginning of this year.
Recently addressing Celtic's transfer interest, Tounekti said [Fotbollskanalen]: "I think the interest is still there, and I know they probably won’t give up yet. That’s what I’ve heard.
“They’re going to go all in. So we’ll see what happens. I’m very happy here, but it’s great to see such interest.
“It’s difficult to answer that right now. Things can happen quickly in football. The window closes tomorrow.
“I understand Hammarby. They want to win matches in the autumn and I’ve been given a good role in the team.
“So, I understand Hammarby’s side. But there’s a lot of money involved and it will be exciting to see what happens.”
