Following a 2-0 win over Hearts, Postecoglou confirmed that a deal was close, stating: "Yeah I think that's a fair assessment, it's getting close."

He added: "Our recruiting this year has been around making our squad better and more robust, compared to last year.

"If you look at the players we've brought in, that's what they've added to our squad.

"So it's not a specific area as such, it's more if we can get a couple of players who can play a couple of positions it will help us."
