Postecoglou's Request: Celtic Star Set to Join Al Nassr

Australian Ange Postecoglou, the head coach of Al Nassr, has identified Celtic midfielder Callum McGregor as one of his key targets to bolster the squad during the current summer transfer window.

According to the Daily Record, McGregor's name was previously linked with a move to Al Qadisiyah, but negotiations for this transfer have stopped, despite earlier interest in securing his services.

The newspaper revealed that Postecoglou has pinpointed two foreign names to strengthen the midfield, with McGregor at the top of the list, as Al Nassr plans to compensate for the anticipated departure of Croatian Marcelo Brozović.

The Australian coach trusts the abilities of the Celtic captain, having previously worked together during a successful period at the Scottish club, where they secured five domestic titles in two seasons.

The strong synergy between Postecoglou and McGregor may give Al Nassr an edge if they officially move to complete the deal in the coming days.

Al Nassr continues to explore its options in the transfer market, aiming to bolster its squad with experienced and quality players, in preparation for competing in all tournaments in the upcoming season.
