Celtic are in 'advanced talks' with PSG over a permanent move for midfielder Edouard Michut.

The 19-year old featured seven times for the French champions last season and the youth international now appears to have caught the eye of Ange Postecoglou.

Various reports suggest the Parkhead side are preparing an opening bid of £2million.

Michut plays primarily as an attacking midfielder with Celtic looking to fill the gap left by Tom Rogic's departure this summer.

Reports in France last month claim Michut has grown frustrated at a lack of a pathway to the first team at his current club and would be open to a move away.

Full-back Alexandro Bernabei and goalkeeper Ben Siegrist are two new additions Celtic have made this summer.

Cameron Carter-Vickers and Jota have also returned on permanent deals as the club prepare for their Premiership title defence and the Champions League group stages.
