Celtic have completed the £2.3m signing of Serbia striker Stefan Scepovic from Sporting Gijon.
The 24-year-old has agreed a four-year contract just 24 hours after withdrawing from an agreement with the Scottish champions.
But a switch to Getafe collapsed, allowing Celtic to land the forward who scored 22 goals in the Spanish second tier last season.
Celtic are also working on a deal to sign Manchester City's John Guidetti.
Guidetti, 22, capped once for Sweden in 2012, is in the final year of his City contract.
The striker was a prolific goalscorer during the 2011/12 campaign on loan at Feyenoord. However, a January move to Stoke last season was not so productive, with the striker making just six appearances as a substitute and failing to find the net.
Meanwhile, Celtic have allowed forwards Teemu Pukki, Amido Balde and Holmbert Fridjonsson to move away on loan as manager Ronny Deila reshapes the squad he inherited from Neil Lennon over the summer.
Pukki and Fridjonsson have joined Danish club Brondby, while Balde has gone to Belgian club Waasland Beveren.
Midfielders Dylan McGeough and Jackson Irvine have moved on to Hibernian and Ross County, respectively.
Jo Inge Berget, Aleksander Tonev, Jason Denayer and Wakaso Mubarak have all arrived at the Scottish champions on loan this summer, while free agent Craig Gordon was Deila's first signing.
