Matt O'Riley on Leicester transfer as Celtic star confesses Brendan Rodgers' side 'quite like me'

Celtic midfielder Matt O'Riley is "aware" of interest from Leicester City but insists he is fully focussed on life at Parkhead.

Reports this summer have suggested the English Premier League side have placed the the 21-year-old on their summer wish list as Brendan Rodgers continues his search to land his first signing of the summer. O'Riley made his way to Parkhead from MK Dons in January this year in a move worth £1.5million and has caught the eye of Parkhead fans and the Danish national set-up.

He made 19 appearances under Ange Postecoglou as he helped the side reclaim the Scottish Premiership title, and will look to play a vital role in the defence of that crown when the league campaign starts on Sunday against Aberdeen. That form earned O'Riley a call-up to the Denmark under-21 side in March, and he has now went on to earn four caps for the national team.
