Celtic are set to seal a deal to bring Steven Fletcher to Parkhead.
Record Sport this week revealed the club had launched talks with the experienced striker - and it’s close to being agreed.
It is understood Celts have offered the 33-year-old a one year deal but the hitman is holding out for a longer contract.
But Hoops boss Neil Lennon is keen on bolstering his attack by adding the ex-Hibs, Sunderland and Sheffield Wednesday ace and are confident both sides can strike an agreement.
The Scotland star is a free agent and believed to be targeting a return north of the border following a successful decade down south.
The 33-year-old broke through at Hibs and went on to score 52 goals in 189 games for the capital club.
Fletcher has gone on to have a successful career in England, representing the likes of Burnley, Sunderland and Wolves.
He hit 13 goals in 27 Championship games for Wednesday last term but became a free agent when his contract expired.
And he could now be set to make his return to the Scottish top flight as he fills a gap in Neil Lennon's attack.
