Celtic could lose one of their top youth prospects to the English Premier League, a report has suggested.

Son of former Kilmarnock, Ross County and Airdrieonians footballer Paul, Rocco di Giacomo could well be on his way to Arsenal.

The 15-year-old winger seems to be attracting attention from the English giants.

According to 67HailHail, scouts from the North London outfit have been keeping a watchful eye over Rocco's progress.

The teenager can also play as a No.10, and has experience with Scotland Under-16s too. He featured in their latest Victory Shield game at the weekend.

He made three appearances for the Under-15s before progressing to the next age level.

Arsenal also have an interest in St Johnstone's young defender Callumm Hamill.

Celtic have lost plenty of their younger talents to Premier League clubs and other abroad in recent years. 

Both Liam Morrison and Barry Hepburn departed for Bayern Munich, while Ben Doak of course joined Liverpool when he turned 16, and Aidan Borland moved to Aston Villa.

Meanwhile, in a challenging match against Borussia Dortmund, Celtic goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel appeared to struggle, raising concerns about his performance and fitness as he navigates the later stages of his career.

Former Manchester City teammate Richard Dunne expressed his worries, suggesting that Schmeichel must remain vigilant to avoid the pitfalls of aging as a professional athlete.

The match, which ended in a staggering 7-1 defeat for Celtic at Signal Iduna Park, was a tough outing for the veteran keeper.

Despite his extensive experience, Schmeichel found himself under relentless pressure from a formidable Dortmund side, and while he made several attempts to keep the scoreline respectable, it was a night where few players in green and white could claim to have performed well.

Dunne, who retired in 2015 aged 36,  noted that while Schmeichel's struggles were evident, it would be unfair to place the blame solely on him.
