On Monday, Southampton have joined the tussle to sign the youngster, who has to make a decision between the Saints and the Eredivisie side this week. Celtic have now been added to the mix.
AD claim Buonanotte has been on the Dutch club’s radar for the past few weeks. It’s claimed Feyenoord have ‘put an end’ to their chase because they couldn’t complete the loan signing of the Argentina international.
There’s no mention of the reason why Feyenoord couldn’t sign him, but they have decided to look at other options in the market. This will please Celtic and ‘especially Southampton’ as these two clubs have been trying to secure Buonanotte’s services.
The Brighton player is expected to continue in the United Kingdom, meaning he could join Celtic, Southampton or another British club, likely on loan, in this window
The Seagulls’ offer of more than £25 million shows they’re serious about securing O’Riley’s services, especially in the face of competition from Atalanta and Southampton, both of which have also shown strong interest in the midfielder and submitted bids that are miles away from Celtic’s valuation.
It will be interesting to see what happens over the next few days, and whether or not Matt O’Riley is keen on a move that will see him without any European football this season.
