Celtic midfielder Matt O’Riley has signed a new four-year contract.

Just a few days after signing, the Danish Under-21 international made his debut in a 2-1 win over Hearts at Tynecastle.

Celtic midfielder Matt O’Riley has signed a new four-year contract extension that will keep him at the club until 2027.

Hatate, Callum McGregor, Liel Abada, Kyogo, Daizen Maeda, and Anthony Ralston have all signed new contracts since Brendan Rodgers’ return to the club.

The Danish Under-21 internationalist, who joined Celtic from MK Dons in January 2022, made his debut just a few days later in a 2-1 win over Hearts at Tynecastle.

He went on to play 80 games for Celtic, scoring 12 goals.

“It’s probably difficult to put it into a short sentence, but I think everybody knows how much I enjoy playing here, especially at Celtic,” he told Celtic TV.

Park since I don’t believe that is available anywhere else.

I truly cannot convey how much I adore playing football here. It’s great to be a part of a football family.

“I believe that’s quite rare, given everything we do on and off the field, in terms of community service and charities, and so on… I believe it is one-of-a-kind, and I am honored to be a part of it.

“I think it’s important to go into training every day really enjoying the company of your teammates, being able to laugh and push each other.”

“If you have a good relationship off the field, it naturally makes it easier to demand high standards from each other, and right now I believe we have a really good balance of youth and experience.”

“I’m still pretty young but I’m probably in the middle of that because we’ve got a young team, but that dynamic and balance is really helpful.”

“We are really pleased that Matt has agreed this new contract with the club,” Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers stated.

“As we’ve seen in recent weeks, Matt is playing some fantastic football, developing in all areas of his game, and it’s a fantastic time for him right now.”

“Matt has so much to his game but is always eager to learn, develop, and grow, and from that perspective, combined with his inherent talent, he is a joy to coach and work with.”

“I am delighted that he has signed his new deal and I am sure he will continue to make a massive contribution to the Club going forward.”
