Young Irish striker Shay Reid, who is said to have spent spells at Celtic on trial, has reportedly caught the attention of two English Championship clubs.
The 16-year-old topped the under-20 Premiership Development League goalscoring charts last term, bagging 23 times in 32 matches. He also netted 21 goals in 25 under-18 appearances.

Reid enjoyed trial periods at Celtic earlier this year, claims the Belfast News Letter, who says that he has 'caught the attention' of Preston North End and Wrexham, both of whom play their football in England's second tier.
There is also said to be interest from Aberdeen.
Celtic have seemed to have a keen eye for Irish talent in recent times. Liam Scales was signed for £500,000 from Shamrock Rovers, not long before Johnny Kenny swapped Sligo for Glasgow.
The 21-year-old striker, who converted his spot-kick in his side's Scottish Cup final defeat to Aberdeen, netted on his maiden Celtic start, which came against the same opposition a week and a half prior.
"He's come in and obviously been limited in his opportunities, but it's not stopped him," said Brendan Rodgers of the forward last month.
"He's worked so hard every day and it was just about timing, really. It was about giving him the opportunity.
"He took it with a fantastic goal. His movement was really good, so that gave him huge confidence.
"I like him as a player. He obviously came into Celtic earlier, went away, got some experience. He's grown over the few months we've had him from January. He's got stronger. His movement's really good.
"He's a natural goal scorer. From 25 yards in, he can get the goal like he did tonight, left foot, right foot. I'm so pleased for him. A young guy from Ireland, playing for Celtic and then scoring your first goal at Pittodrie. It was amazing for him."
