Celtic secured the services of 15-year-old striker Filip Skorb earlier this week.

The highly-rated youngster joined the Hoops from Portobello CFA despite interest from the likes of Rangers, Newcastle and Leeds United.

He had previously visited these clubs but, in the end, joined the Hoops.

Following the move, his agent posted on Instagram saying that he is ‘delighted to have helped get the move over the line:

Across social media, praise is high for Skorb and the above post was shared by the player himself on his Instagram story:

Celtic appear to have got a player on their hands in Skorb, and the fact he knocked back the Hoops’ Glasgow rivals and several Premier League sides to join the side managed by Ange Postecoglou is hugely positive and shows his commitment to the club.

In the future, it will be intriguing to see Skorb’s development at Celtic, and he will be one to keep an eye on at Lennoxtown over the next few years.
