Josip Juranovic is expected to fly to Glasgow today to undergo a medical ahead of signing a four year Celtic contract.

The defender signed off his Legia Warsaw career with a stunning goal in the 2-2 draw away to Slavia Prague which sets the Poles up nicely to clinch a group place in the Europa League.

With a deal in place between the two clubs it was something of a gamble by Legia to pick the Celtic-bound defender but it paid off in the scoring draw.

So you asked, I asked. Josip Juranovic is flying to Glasgow for medical tests this morning. If it is positive, the transfer will be closed. He will sign a 4-year contract. There is no chance that he will play in the rematch.

Juranovic moved to Legia a year ago from Hadjuk Split and appeared for Croatia at the European Championships.

Right-back was a position that Ange Postecoglou has been looking to strengthen with Tony Ralston rising to the reprieve given to his Celtic career.

Juranovic looks like being a Celtic player before next week’s return tie with AZ Alkmaar, if successful he could be in line for a return to Warsaw and a lively clash against Legia as a Celtic player.
