Celtic have received an enquiry from Juventus regarding Matt O'Riley, according to reports.
This comes just a week after the Scottish champions rejected an initial bid from Europa League winners, Atalanta, for the talented 23-year-old midfielder.
O'Riley has been in impressive form since joining Celtic from MK Dons in January 2022, quickly establishing himself as a key player in Ange Postecoglou's side.
He has continued that upward career trajectory under Brendan Rodgers' leadership, earning a hat-trick of awards at Celtic's Player of the Year night following the 2023/24 season.
His performances have not gone unnoticed out with British shores though, with a number of clubs across Europe now monitoring his situation.
In addition to Juventus, it is understood that Atletico Madrid, Southampton and Roma are also among the teams interested in signing O'Riley this summer.

O'Riley’s current contract at Celtic runs until 2027, having penned a new four-year deal last September, but the Glasgow giants may face a battle to hold onto him if these high-profile suitors firm up their interest with concrete bids that the Hoops' hierarchy cannot turn down.
Atalanta are believed to be lining up a third offer for the Danish internationalist, with several news outlets in Italy claiming O'Riley has already given his green light to the move and another round of talks will commence on Monday afternoon.
Celtic will be keen to retain O'Riley's services as they look to defend their Scottish title and make a stronger impact in the UEFA Champions League next season.
However, the lure of a move to one of Europe's top leagues may prove difficult for the player to turn down if the right offer comes in.
