Dylan Crowe could reportedly join Scottish Premiership giants Celtic when his Ipswich Town contract expires.
The 2018/19 season could hardly have been more miserable for Ipswich Town.
The Tractor Boys looked set for relegation right from the start of the campaign and inevitably ended up finishing bottom of the Championship table with a depressing tally of 31 points from 46 games – leaving them a huge 13 points adrift of safety.
And, to make matters worse, Ipswich could now be about to lose one of their most promising youngsters – England youth star Dylan Crowe.
The Mail reports that Celtic are battling Huddersfield Town and RB Leipzig for Crowe, who is out of contract this summer and could leave Portman Road for a compensation fee of just £500,000.
Celtic have a history of snapping up some of the brightest talents in Britain and they must have seen something rather special in Crowe, a teenage defender who could potentially solve The Hoops’ right-back problem.
But fans of a club who have lost the likes of Kundai Benyu, Matt Clarke, Connor Wickham and co in recent years are understandably wondering why Ipswich failed to tie down Crowe a long time ago.
