In-form Matt O'Riley has revealed his Celtic pals have tipped Denmark to win the World Cup as he attempts to push is way into the Qatar 2022 squad.
The Denmark Under-21 cap has been an impressive addition for Ange Postecoglou since joining from MK Dons in January for a bargain £1.5million and has been mooted for a move back down south with the likes of Leicester City, Manchester United and Liverpool credited with an interest. The 21-year-old, however, has remained focused on his Celtic career and been key in the Parkhead engine room this term.
O'Riley hopes that form is enough to see him earn his first full call up for the Nations League clashes with Croatia and France when boss Kasper Hjulmand announces his squad. The midfielder hopes he is able to use the games to prove he is a worthy choice for the World Cup this winter - and admitted his Celtic teammates have big hopes for the Danes.
