News of two potential departures today as both Maik Nawrocki and Tomoki Iwata could be allowed to leave Celtic on loan with options opening up for both players ahead of the 11pm transfer window deadline this evening.

Tomoki Iwata is a target for Chris Davies at Birmingham City as Brendan Rodgers’ former right hand man looks to the Scottish Champions after having a few raids on the Ibrox squad this summer.

With the arrival of Arne Engels, whose best position is possibly the number six, Tomoki is likely to fall further down the pecking order and like Nawrocki, he has yet to feature this season. The arrival of American defender Auston Trusty will also mean that the Polish centre-half will find getting minutes at Celtic challenging, so he may fancy a loan move to get game-time.

Celtic will want to get the Engels and Trusty deals concluded before making calls on these two possible exits.

Watch out for the possible arrival of Luke McCowan as Celtic might nip in ahead of Hibs before the window closes.
