Celtic sources report a significant Matt O’Riley update.
If a bid of £35 million is made for 23-year-old Matt O’Riley this summer, Celtic will accept it, according to sources.
Football Insider journalist and Scottish expert Daniel Bowers stated on Football Insider’s Inside Track podcast that Brendan Rodgers “doesn’t get a say” if the club is offered a large fee.
Even though fans would be “disappointed” if the midfielder left Celtic Park, there is also an understanding that Celtic would have to accept a large offer.
A fee of £35 million would break the Scottish transfer record by £10 million, demonstrating O’Riley’s impact last season and the attention he has received since.
The £25 million record was set by Kieran Tierney’s move to Arsenal in the summer of 2019.
Celtic selling O’Riley would be a huge blow to the squad.
While a sale for the central midfielder is likely given his impressive performances last season, his departure would have a significant impact on the squad.
Last season, the Danish international made 37 appearances in the Scottish Premiership, scoring 18 goals and assisting 13 times.
He was a key factor in the Hoops’ Scottish Premiership victory, and he thrived in the Champions League, recording three assists in the European competition.
While Celtic may lose a fan favourite this summer, another could return after Adam Idah shared a green heart on social media, sparking excitement among supporters.
According to Football Insider, the Norwich City striker is “very keen” to return to Celtic Park, and a deal could be completed during this window.
