According to The Daily Record, Celtic are facing competition for David Turnbull from Bristol City, Southampton, Burnley and Brighton and Hove Albion.

It has been reported that Celtic in the Scottish Premiership and Bristol City in the Championship in England have made enquiries for the 19-year-old Motherwell midfielder.

The report has also credited Premier League trio Southampton, Burnley and Brighton with interest in the Scotland Under-21 international.

According to The Daily Record, Motherwell want at least £2.5 million as transfer fees up front and more than £500,000 in add-ons.

Promising talent

Turnbull is one of the best young midfielders in the Scottish Premiership and played well for Motherwell this season.

According to BBC Sport, the 19-year-old midfielder scored 15 goals and provided five assists in the Scottish Premiership for Motherwell this season.

The teenager needs to play regular first-team competitive football at this stage of his career, and if he leaves Motherwell this summer, then he should pick a club where he will get the most playing time.
