Celtic have been credited as one of the clubs interested in signing Tyrhys Dolan of Blackburn Rovers. 

The right-winger scored four goals in The Championship last season after starting 20 matches and making 14 appearances off the bench. 

Dolan would appear to have a similar profile to Liel Abada who will have James Forrest competing with him for a place in the Celtic side next season. 

Geoff Peters works for TalkSPORT.

As an England u-20 internationalist Dolan is likely to have his eyes on a move to the EPL. Celtic can offer Champions League football but against that Abada looks firmly to be the man in possession of the right wing berth. 

With pre-season training starting a week today there is likely to be lots of speculative transfer stories involving Celtic this week. 

Matt O’Riley, an England U-16 and u-18 internationalist, was signed in similar circumstances last season but after Blackburn’s near miss for the play-offs last season there are likely to be a few EPL sides willing to spend £3m on an England u-20 internationalist.
