27-1-11: Celtic are to sign Derby County midfielder Kris Commons for £300k. Rangers were also interested, but appear to have missed out as Gers boss Walter Smith revealed: "There is nothing in that one, that one's finished with by the looks of things. There is nothing else for us to report on transfers." Meanwhile, Derby chief executive Tom Glick told the Derby Telegraph: "We received and accepted a bid from Celtic for the transfer of Kris and we have given both the player and Celtic permission to talk personal terms. "We understand that should be happening very soon, if it has not already happened. I do not know the timetable but I expect Kris will be in Glasgow on Thursday. "The deal is not completed but whatever funding comes in from the deal is available immediately to the manager or whenever he should choose to invest it. "We are constantly looking at options to improve the squad. Specifically, we are focused right now on attacking options."
