Celtic manager Martin O'Neill expects to sell Daizen Maeda and Arne Engels this summer as Rangers counterpart Derek McInnes admits he needs departures before more signings. O'Neill is resigned to losing the 28-year-old Japan forward Daizen Maeda and 22-year-old Belgian midfielder Arne Engels.

O'Neill would love to keep Daizen Maeda at Celtic and allow him to run down the final year of his contract, as club legend Henrik Larsson did more than two decades ago. He also plans to discuss the future with Celtic captain Callum McGregor after the 33-year-old midfielder switched agents amid reports of interest from other clubs.

Kelechi Iheanacho is training beside Newcastle United and Denmark striker William Osula at the Seedorf Football Academy in Manchester, with O'Neill saying he is still interested in re-signing the 29-year-old forward. Meanwhile, negotiations between Feyenoord and Hertha Berlin for goalkeeper Tjark Ernst are progressing, with Celtic and Wolfsburg also interested in the 23-year-old.

Brondby sporting director Julius Ohnesorge has admitted they are open to selling Benjamin Tahirovic but says there has been no approach from Celtic for the 23-year-old midfielder.
