Celtic to move for Brighton & Hove Albion teen Aaron Connolly?

A report claims that Celtic are the latest side to have shown an interest in Brighton & Hove Albion youngster Aaron Connolly, with a loan move next month a possibility.

Scottish champions Celtic are reportedly considering a move for Brighton & Hove Albion teenager Aaron Connolly.

The young striker has already been linked with Manchester City, Manchester United and Hoffenheim after netting regularly for Brighton's Under-23s side this term.

Connolly has been in discussions with the Seagulls over a new long-term contract but, according to The Sun, the 18-year-old may move on next month either on a permanent or short-term basis, with Celtic the latest to show an interest.

Brighton are said to be willing to loan out Connolly for the second half of 2018-19, and the Republic of Ireland age-grade international would welcome regular football at senior level.

Connolly made his first-team debut for Brighton in the early stages of the EFL Cup last season and also played a small part in the same competition against Southampton earlier this term.
