Brighton Now In Talks To Land S… Target Matt O’Riley
Brighton & Hove Albion are negotiating with Celtic for Southampton target Matt O’Riley, as reported by Sky Sports News.
The Danish midfielder is highly sought after this summer, with Atalanta making multiple rejected bids and interest from Juventus and Chelsea.
Southampton manager Russell Martin is keen to sign O’Riley, but Brighton has now joined the competition.
The Seagulls are in discussions with Celtic to agree on a fee.
It remains uncertain how interested O’Riley is in choosing Brighton over other options.
Celtic are hesitant to let him go but will consider offers exceeding £20 million.
Atalanta, who can offer Champions League football, may still re-enter the bidding.
