Interim manager Martin O'Neill revealed Celtic is close to securing two new signings, with medicals underway. This news comes after a 2-0 victory over Falkirk, which propelled the team above Rangers into second place in the Scottish Premiership. Supporters have been vocal about the need for squad reinforcements, making these potential additions a welcome development for the fans.

O'Neill hinted at the possibility of more deals before the transfer window closes. Tomas Cvancara, recently signed on loan, made an immediate impact, scoring against Falkirk. The team is currently trailing Hearts by six points in the league, so securing new talent is vital to their title ambitions. Former Celtic goalkeeper Pat Bonner expressed relief at the progress.

Cvancara's impressive debut, including a goal and an assist, offers a glimmer of hope. O'Neill believes there's potential for growth in the Czech Republic international. The manager has been linked to Joel Mvuka and Junior Adamu, but wouldn't confirm the players undergoing medicals. With the deadline looming, Celtic aims to strengthen the squad to challenge for silverware.
