“Celtic Stands Firm Amidst LaLiga Interest, Rejects Plans to Sell Midfielder O’Riley Despite Loan Proposal”
According to reports from the Scottish Sun, Celtic has no intentions of capitalizing on the midfielder’s success and is set to remain resolute in light of interest from the LaLiga side.
Sky Sports has noted that Diego Simeone’s team has proposed an initial
six-month loan with an obligation to make a permanent purchase in the summer.
Under the guidance of Brendan Rodgers, O’Riley has excelled, contributing significantly with 10 goals and 12 assists for the Scottish champions this season.
His impressive form has sparked widespread speculation, leading Celtic to extend his contract last year, securing his services at Parkhead until 2027.
Celtic’s manager, Rodgers, addressed the situation before the recent Scottish Cup victory over Buckie Thistle, expressing unawareness of any interest in the Danish international.
He emphasized that while attention is natural for talented players, the focus remains on squad enhancement rather than losing key members.
Rodgers affirmed that the initial plan was to strengthen the team, and that objective remains unchanged.
