Brighton have made a formal bid for Celtic midfielder Matt O'Riley.
Brighton have made a formal bid for Celtic midfielder Matt O'Riley. Nothing has been agreed but the clubs are in talks which are set to continue over the coming days. Celtic have rejected five bids from Atalanta for the Denmark international this summer, with the latest offer being £21.5m, plus add-ons.
The 23-year-old is under contract at Celtic until 2027, with the club knocking back an offer of £20m from Atletico Madrid in January. Rodgers: Value the player, not the league Rodgers has previously warned clubs that O'Riley will not be leaving Celtic on the cheap this summer: 'There are obviously bids that will come in for Matt O'Riley but, I repeat, there is no need for us to sell and we don't want to sell,' he told Sky Sports News.
