Southampton and Brighton and Hove Albion are also claimed to be interested in Elvis Azah.
It has been reported that the 16-year-old winger featured in a trial match for Celtic earlier this week.
The Republic of Ireland youth international played for the Hoops’ youth team against Partick Thistle, scoring one goal and creating another in a 4-1 win.
Celtic, though, are facing competition for the teenager, according to The Daily Mail, which claims of interest from Chelsea, Brighton and Hove Albion and Southampton in the 16-year-old.
The report has also stated that Azah, who can operate as a winger or further forward in attack, previously had trials at Manchester United and Everton.
Azah is a very talented and promising young player, and it will be interesting to see if Celtic are able to sign the 16-year-old.
Meanwhile, the Hoops suffered a defeat on Saturday afternoon, going down 1-0 away from home at Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premiership.
