Celtic are interested in Ipswich right-back Dylan Crowe, according to reports in the English media.

The England Under 18 international is out of contract at the end of June, but the Tractor Boys are seeking £500,000 in compensation for the defender.

Huddersfield have already had a £300,000 rejected for Crowe and are believed to be the favourites to land the fullback, but the Hoops and RB Leipzig are also said to be keen on the 18-year-old.

The teenager, who has previously been tracked by the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United, has yet to play a match of senior football.

Crowe played two rounds in the FA Youth Cup for Ipswich’s Under 18s earlier this season, while at international level he has moved up from the Under 17s to the Under 18s.

Last summer, he played in all three group games at the Euro U17 Championships, while he has also featured in friendlies for the Under 18s against the Czech Republic and Mexico back in March.
