According to The Scottish Sun, Celtic are fighting nine other clubs for Motherwell midfielder David Turnbull.

The report has claimed that it was Barnley’s bid of £2 million that Motherwell recently turned down, with Celtic yet to make an official offer.

It has been claimed that Celtic and nine other clubs have contacted Motherwell regarding the 19-year-old midfielder.

BBC Sport had earlier reported that the Hoops and Barnsley both had made bids for the Scotland Under-21 international.

The report claimed that Scottish Premiership club Motherwell want as much s £3 million as transfer fee for the youngster.

Leaving Motherwell

Turnbull scored 15 goals and provided five assists in the Scottish Premiership for Motherwell this season, according to BBC Sport.

The 19-year-old is a hugely promising talent, and it does appear that the midfielder will be prised away from Motherwell by a bigger club in the summer transfer window.

For the Scottish midfielder to progress, he should choose his next club carefully and based on how much he is going to develop there as a footballer.
