Matt O'Riley pictured at Celtic Park as new £1.5m signing arrives in Glasgow to seal deal

New Celtic signing Matt O'Riley has been pictured at Celtic Park ahead of his £1.5m move from MK Dons.

Record Sport told you on Wednesday night how Ange Postecoglou and Parkhead signing chiefs had outmuscled a late attempt by West Brom to hijack the deal.

And with English midfielder O'Riley rocking up in Glasgow's east end it looks like the transfer is home and hosed.

He'll be Postecoglou's fifth signing of the January window after young striker Johnny Kenny followed Japanese trio Daizen Maeda, Reo Hatate and Yosuke Ideguchi.

The 6 foot 2 star is one of the standout players of League One this season at Stadium MK and it's understood he also attracted interest from Swansea, Blackburn and Huddersfield.

With seven goals and five assists this season, there was also interest from across Europe, including Belgian giants Anderlecht and Serie A side Venezia.

But it appears to be Celtic who have won the race as O'Riley arrived in Scotland this afternoon.
