Doctor shares if Celtic star Matt O’Riley to pass medical amid Aston Villa, West Ham United transfer links
Dr Rajpal Brar said Matt O’Riley, a midfielder for Celtics who is being targeted by Aston Villa and West Ham, is unlikely to have any problems passing his physical this month.
After evaluating the Englishman’s fitness over the past two seasons, the injury expert conclud
es that he is in perfect condition and should be signed by any club.
On December 22, Sky Sports said that the 23-year-old has been observed by Inter Milan, Atletico Madrid, PSV Eindhoven, Villa, and the Hammers throughout his Champions League matches.
They claim that it will take more than Celtic’s £25 million transfer record to convince them to let him go in January.
Dr. Brar, a sports scientist and physical therapist, discussed this scenario with Villa News.
Since availability is the greatest talent, his playing record has always been highly valued and is evidence of his work ethic and commitment off the field.
“He’s played nearly every game since last season and that’s certainly commendable.
“He will pass his medical if he does end up leaving in the January transfer window and there should be no problems with it.”
The 23-year-old has been in sensational form for Celtic this term as he’s found the back of the net on 10 occasions and provided seven assists in 21 league appearances.
It’s not like he’s only playing against inferior opponents; in six Champions League games, he’s also racked up three more assists.
It’s unclear if Villa will be able to afford to spend a lot of money on O’Riley during the January transfer window.
Due to their exceptional achievement of winning the league and placing in the top four, the owners may be willing to relax their financial restrictions.
