MATT O’Riley is attracting the attention of many clubs south of the border with his stellar performances this season.
Yesterday, we reported how Brentford were interested in the Danish midfielder, and how the club were keen to test the waters with Celtic.
Now, Football Insider reports that Brighton has joined Brentford, and has ‘set their sights’ on the 22-year-old.
Just a few months ago, Celtic knocked back a late £10 million from Fulham, with the midfielder later penning a new four-year deal to keep him at the club until 2027.
This season he’s added goals to his game, scoring six already, while continuing to provide for his teammates. He’s set Kyogo up superbly twice in the Champions League in the first three games, and has put in commendable performances.
Arriving for just £1.5 million nearly two years ago from MK Dons, he’s been a superb player for the Hoops.
Fabrizio Romano reported that Celtic would need to receive a Scottish transfer record fee for the player to depart the club.
