Celtic starlet Daniel Kelly has reportedly rejected a contract offer.
The 18-year-old is under contract at Celtic until December 31 - meaning he could discuss a pre-contract move elsewhere in the summer.
But Celtic are keen to tie down the talented teenager on a new contract.
So far, though, no new deal has been agreed with Sky Sports reporting Kelly has knocked back a Celtic contract offer.
The outlet claims Kelly rejected an offer but remains keen to sign new terms as club officials also hope to reach an agreement.
The midfielder broke into the Celtic first-team this season and has made six appearances under Brendan Rodgers this term.
Kelly has been a regular in the Celtic B team but made the step up to the first team in recent months - bagging his first goal against Dundee back in February.

After Kelly's first goal for the club, manager Rodgers even admitted he was jealous of the teenager - who has progressed through the youth set-up.
He said: "One of our young guys Daniel Kelly gets his first-ever goal for the club.
"I can be envious of him as a Celtic supporter because he has been here since he was eight years of age and that is all that hard work paying off.
"It was a great finish from him."
Meanwhile, Chris Sutton reckons Rodgers has gotten under Philippe Clement's skin with his Celtic vs Rangers derby mind games.
The Ibrox boss fumed over Rodgers' "disrespectful" remark as he suggested Celtic would 'have fun' against Rangers.
Pundit Sutton commented: "Brendan has got under his skin. When he first came in he was always calm and composed but he is feeling the pressure.
"I don't know why Brendan has said it. It would have been tongue in cheek, but it is better to do your talking at the end of the season."
