Celtic are to give a trial to teenage St Pat's Athletic midfielder Darragh Markey.

The 18-year-old is to travel over to Glasgow for a bounce match on Sunday.

Markey's agent, Gerry Carlile, said: "He will go over for one day for a game.

"He will have a look at them and they will have a look at him. There are a lot of clubs interested in him. He is still a St Pat's player, but we will see what happens."

Markey has made eight appearances for St Pat's, who finished fourth in the League of Ireland Premier Division.

The Dubliner joined his local club from Cherry Orchard in July 2014 and broke into the first team last year.
