According to the latest news from Sky Sports, Brighton FC are in advanced transfer talks with Scottish Premier League giants Celtic, targeting Danish midfield star O'Reilly. The 23-year-old midfielder has attracted the attention of many European clubs with his outstanding performance, and Brighton is undoubtedly the most active one.
Reports suggest that Brighton are not the only club interested in O'Reilly. Atlanta have made several offers to Celtic in the past, but they have all been rejected. This shows the importance Celtic attach to O'Reilly and their tough stance in transfer negotiations. However, as the transfer market deepens, more and more clubs are joining the battle, and Chelsea is one of them.
According to Sky Sports reports over the weekend, O'Reilly will be one of the key candidates Chelsea are considering to replace Chelsea midfielder Gallagher if he manages to move to Atletico Madrid. The news certainly adds more variables to O'Reilly's transfer and makes the battle even more intense.
Currently, O'Reilly is valued at €20 million in the German transfer market, which is a testament to his potential and market value. As a young and talented midfielder, O'Reilly is one of the coveted players by many clubs as he has shown excellent ball control, passing vision and attacking awareness on the field.
For Brighton, the successful signing of O'Reilly will undoubtedly further enhance the team's midfield strength, laying a solid foundation for the team to achieve better results in the new season of the Premier League. For Chelsea, O'Reilly could be an important piece of the team's future midfield puzzle, helping the team to continue to maintain competitiveness in the Premier League and European competition.
