  "summary": "Celtic are actively pursuing up to four new signings ahead of finalising their Europa League squad, according to assistant manager Shaun Maloney. The Scottish champions have already signed four first-team players this transfer window and have been linked with a goalkeeper, a midfielder, and a left-back. Maloney aims to bolster the squad with a left-back to compete with Kieran Tierney and reinforce the midfield with a player who can bring speed and power. Celtic targets include Sam Johnstone, Oliver Sorensen, and Joel van den Berg. The transfer deadline for the Scottish Premier League is on Thursday, with the Europa League squad to be registered by Wednesday at 23:59.",
