Celtic target praised by boss

St Mirren boss Stephen Robinson has praised youngster Dylan Reid for turning down Celtic.

The teenager was the subject of a bid from the champions.

However, he has decided to stay put. His boss has said, as per Football Scotland:

“Credit to Dylan he has backed himself because he believes he will break into the first team here. If he does he will be an asset to ourselves and if he does leave he will go as a first team player as proposed to a B player or under 23 player. It wasn’t a surprise to me.”
