Matt O’Riley sets the bar high on potential Celtic exit as Southampton hit roadblock

Matt O’Riley sets the bar high on potential Celtic exit as Southampton hit roadblock

The Matt O’Riley rumor mill reopened today following claims

that surfaced overnight suggesting Southampton, an English Premier League team,

is ready to sign the Celtic star this summer.

According to rumors, Celtic is ready for a bid of about £20 million, with add-ons

that would push the deal beyond £25 million, setting a new record for the Bhoys.

However, Southampton-based media sources claim that any

transaction is not without complications. To get anything beyond the finish line,

a great deal of labor remains.

The Saints may find it difficult to come to a personal agreement

with the Danish international if O’Riley is seeking for a higher wage

than they normally offer, according to a Monday afternoon article from The Daily Echo.

O’Riley is putting a lot of emphasis on his worth. As he ought to, considering that this might be the most significant decision of his professional life.

Matt O’Riley might have a lengthy game if the Celtics lose.
It’s obvious that large sums of money will need to be offered to the player and the club in order to persuade O’Riley that it’s time to leave Celtic. There is just no need to speed a deal through, so nobody is.

The Bhoys are in a good negotiation position because the midfielder’s contract doesn’t expire until 2027.

O’Riley also has all summer to commit to any deal. It would be foolish to jump at the first club that show interest when bigger opportunities could come along towards the end of the transfer window.

The most likely scenario here is that, after enjoying a well-deserved holiday, O’Riley returns to Lennoxtown pre-season training and continues to work hard as a Celtic player. Interested clubs know what they need to do to change that.
