It will be bad news for Phil Bardsley as Bruce has obviously targeted the right back slot as a place that needs improving immediately.
Al-Muhammadi is close to joining after agreeing all personal and financial terms but the signing of Marcos Angeleri is taking a bit longer due to passport complications.
Angeleri, from Argentinian club Estudiantes, will be joining for £1.5m and looking to break straight into the team when he joins during pre-season.
The transfer will all be completed once Angeleri gains an Italian passport, which will remove the need for a work permit in the UK.
