CELTIC have agreed a deal to let Theo Archibald join Brentford.

SunSport Online told on April 13 the Bees were trying to tie-up the 19-year-old on a three-year contract.

It’s understood the way has now been paved for the attacking midfielder to move to Griffin Park after a compensation figure was agreed between the sides.

The switch will be completed once Archibald has played his final game on loan at Albion Rovers.

Archibald has been at Cliftonhill since January but caught the eye playing for the Hoops’ under-age and development teams.

He netted a stunning strike against Manchester City in the UEFA Youth League earlier this season, which helped bring Championship Brentford to the table.

Archibald came off the bench in the second half as the Hoops won the Youth Cup Final on Wednesday night.

Celtic Youth Cup hero Aidan McIlduff vows to bounce back from his Hoops release

WEDNESDAY’S SFA Youth Cup triumph was bittersweet for Celtic starlet Aidan McIlduff.

The left-back scored with a determined drive in the 3-0 rout of Rangers, having turned in an all-action man of the match performance.

His showing masked the personal pain of someone who has just been told he has no future with the Hoops.

The 20-year-old will leave this summer when his contract expires, and he’s enlisted the help of a sports psychologist to help ensure he bounces back from this blow stronger than ever.

Quite strong comments from BR on the Glasgow Cup win last week:

Brendan Rodgers demonstrated that not all Celtic cup wins over Rangers are equal yesterday when he slated his club’s under-17 side despite their triumph in the Glasgow Cup final.

Good to hear that, for too long we've worried about winning at youth level without necessarily developing those youth players into real high quality senior players. I know we've got three ex-youth teamers in the first team squad at the moment and that's great, but it should really be double that number at least with our business model being what it is.

He's a left back, hasnt played a game and is older than our current number 1 left back. No surprise whatsoever.

He'll find another club no problem. Easily half the championship would take him I would think.

He's right. It was rotten. And even at that Celtic were light years ahead of the scum.

Chelsea are interested in Celtic's teenage attacker Michael Johnston.

The 18-year-old has earned rave reviews for the Scottish club's academy this season.

And his performances have attracted admiring glances from top clubs south of the border, with Chelsea among the sides tracking the youngster.

Johnston put in an impressive performance to help the Hoops' Under 20s secure a Scottish Youth Cup triumph over arch rivals Rangers last month.

The highly-rated youngster is yet to make a first-team appearance but his display in that 3-0 victory would have undoubtedly impressed the watching Brendan Rodgers.

Stoke and Derby are also making regular checks on Johnston, who has just one year left on his current deal.

CELTIC kid Josh Kerr is set for a stunning switch to Premier League newboys Brighton.

SunSport can reveal the Seagulls have swooped for the defender after agreeing a deal with the Hoops.

Kerr, 19, is now expected to put pen to paper on a pre-contract with Chris Hughton’s side after passing a medical.

The stopper has been on the books at Parkhead for five years after being bought from Hamilton but hasn’t played a competitive first team game.

This season he helped the Hoops win the Youth Cup final and has also been in a regular in the UEFA Youth League facing the likes of Manchester City and Barcelona.

But from next season he will be a part of Brighton’s Under-23s squad.

Rodgers is the consummate professional. Huge plus for Scottish football amongst the incompetent short sighted morons at the SFA.

What's the deal with this lad? It's being presented in the press like Brighton have stole him from us but I can't recall hearing the name previously apart from when he left on loan earlier in the year.

He was on loan at East Kilbride last season and could barely get a game for them. I'd be shocked if he was anywhere near Brighton's first team.

He'll go into their reserve side the way Stuart Findlay moved to Newcastle's.

He featured a fair amount for u20s after McCart went on loan to ICT but he's not a player I've heard much about in terms of being a top prospect. Not seen him much myself so can't personally comment on him

It's the ones you hear nothing about who make it though. I mean how much did we hear about Michael McGlinchey and Charlie Grant (to be fair he got an injury). But we didn't hear as much about Tierney for example.
