The news covers Scottish football transfer updates and predictions for the upcoming Premiership season. Transfer headlines indicate a Celtic signing is imminent, a former Rangers player has secured a new role, a Scotland international is set for a medical, Rangers are linked with a £12m player, and a former Hibernian player is returning.
With the Scottish Premiership season restarting soon, Celtic aim for a fifth consecutive title (their 56th overall), while Rangers, under new head coach Russell Martin, hope to challenge them. Hibernian (Hibs) seeks to maintain last season's third-place finish, but faces competition from Edinburgh rivals Hearts and Scottish Cup winners Aberdeen for a top-three spot.
Promoted clubs Livingston and Falkirk are both predicted by bookmakers to struggle and face relegation, each given title odds of 1000/1. Dundee, under new manager Steven Pressley and having lost key players Lyall Cameron and Josh Mulligan, are also tipped to be near the relegation zone with title odds of 750/1. St Johnstone, another club with a new manager (Jens Berthel Askou), is expected to finish lower-mid table despite aiming for the top six, also with title odds of 750/1.
