Celtic keeper Viljami Sinisalo has insisted he plans to dislodge Kasper Schmeichel and be the Hoops No.1.
The former Aston Villa shotstopper took over from the veteran Danish keeper when he was out injured and impressed during his seven-game stint, which included a derby clash at Ibrox.
He's also back up with Finland to Lukas Hradecky and is currently on international duty, but he's made it clear his ambition is to become Schmeichel's successor.

Sinisalo said: "Kasper has one year left on his contract. I have four. We are proceeding according to plan. I am 15 years younger than him.
"Hopefully next season I'll get more minutes. I'll just try to play as well as I can when the opportunity arises. We'll see what happens.
"Kasper is an excellent guy. He supported our team well and gave us tips when he was out with an injury. We are a good team together.
"Every footballer wants to play. However, I knew that in front of me was an experienced top goalkeeper who is, so to speak, coming to the end of his career.
"And that I am the young goalkeeper who is more of a project behind him.
"There must be some patience from me.
"But the plan is to be the first-choice goalkeeper at Celtic one day and hopefully that will open doors for me here on the national team as well.
"Sinisalo impressed during his spell as the veteran Dane's replacement, which included an Old Firm game at Ibrox.
He said: "Even though the end of the season was disappointing because we didn't win all three trophies, I enjoyed it.
"I played seven of the last ten games. I'm quite happy with what I achieved towards the end of the season.
"I got to experience what it's like to be a Celtic goalkeeper and I got to play in the match that won the league.
"I lifted that trophy with a slightly better conscience because I had played a part in winning it myself.
"And it was cool to experience the game at Ibrox. There were a few nerves before the game - 95 per cent of the crowd were home fans, every one of whom hates you.
"I will definitely remember the experience forever."
