Celtic have been credited with an interest in Liverpool midfielder Tyler Morton, according to a report from Sport Boom.
The 22-year-old spent the 2023/24 season on loan at Hull City in the English Championship, making a strong impression with consistent performances at the base of midfield. Morton had previously enjoyed a similar loan spell at Blackburn Rovers, gaining regular first-team minutes. He was also part of the England under-21 squad that won the European Championship this summer.
A graduate of Liverpool’s academy, Morton has already made appearances for the first team in both domestic and European competitions. He has three Champions League outings to his name, including a substitute appearance against PSV Eindhoven in last season’s group stage. He was also part of the Liverpool squad that won the Premier League title in 2024/25, earning a medal despite limited on-field involvement.
While the report claims Celtic’s interest, it does not detail the nature or stage of any potential talks. Morton is reportedly valued at around £15 million — a figure that would almost certainly rule out a permanent transfer under Celtic’s current financial model.
From a Celtic perspective, any move for Morton would likely have to be structured as a loan if serious interest develops. With Brendan Rodgers hopefully preparing his side for a return to the Champions League group stage, the club is expected to strengthen key areas, and the midfield remains a position under close review.
Morton’s mix of youth, experience in the English system, and top-level training background could make him an appealing option. However, with no concrete developments reported, this link remains one to watch.
