Celtic stand a real chance of completing a domestic clean sweep this season and their strides in Europe under Brendan Rodgers could embolden the Hoops to speculate to accumulate in the upcoming window.
What are Celtic's main transfer priorities this summer?
Brendan Rodgers can do little wrong in the Parkhead dugout at the moment as his side stand three matches away from claiming a fourth successive Scottish Premiership title, which will be theirs if they defeat Hearts, Rangers and St Johnstone in the coming weeks.
This weekend, Celtic change tact to focus on advancing through their Scottish Cup quarter-final against Hibernian, with Sunday’s encounter offering up the opportunity of a place in the last four of the competition.
Adding in their run to the Champions League knockout playoff phase, the Bhoys are clearly on an upward trajectory under the Irishman’s stewardship. On the transfer front, Kieran Tierney’s impending arrival on a free transfer from Arsenal synchronises with that train of thought.
Elsewhere, Greg Taylor’s deal being set to expire begs the questions over who could accompany the pre-contract signing to fight it out at left-back. Should the latter decide to move on, Hoops loanee Jeffrey Schlupp has been tipped to join permanently by Michael Stewart following his impressive performances since arriving from Crystal Palace.
Further up the pitch, Daizen Maeda’s 26-goal return isn’t likely to deter Celtic from pursuing a new striker. Kyogo Furuhashi left for Rennes in January, opening up a slot across the forward line to introduce further competition.

Intriguingly, the reigning Scottish Premiership champions are now plotting an exciting move to strengthen the engine room once the summer transfer window opens.
Celtic 'very' keen on deal to sign Motherwell midfielder Lennon Miller
According to Football Insider, Celtic are ‘very much interested’ in securing Motherwell midfielder Lennon Miller’s signature and could return to the table after they decided against pursuing the Scotland Under-21 international during the January window.
The outlet claim his current employers want to receive a sizeable fee for the 18-year-old and the Steelmen internally believe he could be worth in the region of £10 million at this moment in time.
Rodgers can totally forget Jota by unleashing Celtic star who's "on fire"
Ahead of Sunday’s Scottish Cup tie against Hibernian, Brendan Rodgers should unleash Celtic’s “on fire” winger who’s outperforming Jota.

Widely regarded as one of the best rising stars in his homeland, Chris Sutton has previously talked up his “impressive” performances against the Hoops and believed his eventual next step should be to join up at Parkhead.
This campaign, Miller has scored four times and laid on six assists in 30 appearances across all competitions. Financially, Rodgers is expected to receive the backing necesarry to pull off a deal after Celtic earned £38 million in Champions League prize money over the course of their time in the competition, much of which is set to be allocated to his transfer kitty.
Lyon, Udinese and Union Saint-Gilloise have also been credited with an interest in the Wishaw-born midfielder, who has fashioned 42 chances on Scottish Premiership duty this term, along with interest from several top clubs in England.
With suitors for Miller likely to grow rapidly between now and the summer, Celtic will hope to convince Miller to continue his development on Scottish shores rather taking on his next challenge abroad.
