Pete O’Rourke has claimed that Celtic are causing a delay in Daniel Kelly’s transfer to Millwall. The Lions had agreed a pre-contract with the 18-year-old to take him to the EFL Championship in January but it was felt it was in everyone’s best interests for a clean break.
Celtic and Millwall thrashed out a £400k deal but O’Rourke is reporting that despite a medical and contract being completed, Celtic are yet to sign off on the deal.
Celtic are probably more concerned with their own business rather than signing off on a B Team player’s departure, who they won’t be best pleased with.
Kelly took the strange decision to swap a professional contract with Celtic that would see him in and around Brendan’s first team to try his hand at the Championship side.
