Brighton have won the race for a midfielder who was being tracked by Chelsea and Atalanta
In the summer transfer window, Brighton were quite active in scrimping, but only one player arrived in the midfield line. This is something the Seagulls intend to rectify very soon.
According to Sky Sports, Celtic midfielder Matt O`Riley has already undergone a medical examination at Brighton. The personal terms of the Dane's stay in the Premier League team are not reported, but it is known that the Scottish grandee will receive £30 million for the 23-year-old midfielder: 26 - immediately and four in the form of bonuses.
Thus, Celtic will renew its record for the most expensive sale, which lasted only a year after the transfer of Jota for 25 million pounds in the Saudi Al-Ittihad last summer.
Recall, earlier the club from Glasgow rejected the offer of Atalanta, which offered for the 23-year-old Dane 21.5 million pounds. He was also being watched by London Chelsea, and attempts to sign the midfielder in the winter was made by Atlético Madrid.
