Celtic have reportedly had an offer for Shabab Al Ahli star Mehdi Ghayedi rejected.
But it's claimed the Parkhead side are prepared to return with a fresh offer to the Iran international forward.
Ghayedi, who can play as a left winger or second striker, only joined the UAE Pro League club on a five-year deal in August 2021.
Iranian outlet Tasnim News report Celtic are "determined" to land the 23-year-old, despite Shabab standing firm over their valuation.
Ghayedi has eight caps as a senior international and previously played for Iranjavan and Shahin Bushehr in his homeland.
Meanwhile, Celtic have agreed a £3million deal to sign Australian midfielder Riley McGree from MLS expansion club FC Charlotte.
The 23-year-old international is set to be officially unveiled as Ange Postecoglou 's fifth signing of a busy January window.
It's understand the manager took a hands-on approach to negotiations and that hands-on approach was pivotal in bringing McGree to the Premiership.
