The transfer fee received sees the 23-year-old become Scottish football’s record sale, eclipsing the fee received by Celtic for defender Kieran Tierney when he joined Arsenal in 2019.

O’Riley leaves after two-and-a-half successful seasons in the east end of Glasgow, where he won a clean sweep of the club’s Player, Young Player and Players’ Player of the Year awards last season.
