POSTECOGLOU PROMISING MORE TRANSFER ACTIVITY

ANGE POSTECOGLOU last night admitted that he isn’t yet done in the transfer window after adding Aaron Mooy and Moritz Jenz to his squad. The pair follow the captures of Alexandro Bernabei and Benjamin Siegrist — with loan deals for Cameron Carter-Vickers, Jota and Daizen Maeda becoming permanent. However, speaking ahead of the team’s final pre-season game against Norwich City today, the Australian confirmed that he’s still in the market for fresh faces. ‘We will still be active,’ he said. ‘Whether we get deals done, we will see. It has to be the right ones. We expect some comings and goings over the next two, three weeks. ‘Ultimately, the recruiting is about making us stronger. We’ve got to be stronger than last year, we’ve got to improve. We want to make sure the league is still our focus. ‘We want to defend our title and to do that I think we have to be stronger. That is what our recruiting has been focused on.’ Postecoglou was delighted that he hung on to the loan players who helped deliver the title last season. ‘We knew what we needed and part of that process was players like Jota and Cameron becoming permanent members of our squad,’ he added. ‘It is not just because they were good last year, it is because we think they are a good investment for us. I think the best football is still ahead of them.’ Meanwhile, Matt O’Riley has brushed off speculation linking him with a move to Brendan

Rodgers’ Leicester. Adamant he’s only focused on winning more honours in Glasgow as the new season looms, the midfielder said: ‘Probably (I have) a few targets. First of all, just to improve my level, naturally. ‘I thought I did well last season but I still think I can do a lot more. This season I really want to kick on for myself and hopefully push for other things in terms of cups.’ Addressing last season’s change of international allegiance to Denmark and his hopes of making their World Cup squad, the former England youth cap said: ‘(Getting into the Denmark squad) of course is a target. I want to be there so I’m going to do my best to do that. ‘Champions League exposure helps a little bit with that. As long as I do my best, hopefully I’ve got a good chance.’
