Former Chelsea Midfielder Eligible For Nigeria, France, England Wanted By Celtic
Reading wonderkid Michael Olise could be the next Nigeria-eligible youngster to make a move from England to Scotland if the latest reports from the English press are anything to go by.

Last summer Celtic signed promising goalkeeper Tobi Oluwayemi from Tottenham Hotspur and the highly-rated Arsenal midfielder Malcolm Ebiowei joined Rangers in February.

According to the Daily Mail, Celtic have placed former Chelsea starlet Olise on a list of potential transfer targets ahead of the upcoming transfer window.

Still only 18, the left-footed attacking midfielder has featured for the Royals first team on numerous occasions, eighteen in total since his debut, including fourteen games under his belt so far this season.

Olise signed his first professional contract with Reading in July 2019, keeping him at the club until June 2022.

He has played non-binding games for France U18 team and also qualifies to represent England at international level.

Celtic's Head of Football Operations, Nick Hammond previously worked at Reading.
