Tottenham Hotspur striker Robbie Keane has agreed to join Celtic on loan.
The Republic of Ireland international emerged as a potential target for the Hoops on a frantic transfer deadline day.
With the experienced frontman currently out of favour at White Hart Lane, Tony Mowbray hoped to convince Spurs that the 29-year-old would be better served taking in a spell at Parkhead.
Harry Redknapp, reluctant to stands in Keane’s way, has agreed to such a request and is happy to let the Irishman stay in Scotland until the end of the season.
Celtic have verbally agreed a deal with the player, who is currently on his way to Glasgow to undergo a medical and put the finishing touches to the switch.
It is understood that an agreement will be official announced by Celtic at 11pm.
Scottish clubs have until midnight to complete their transfer business during the winter window.
