Celtic and Kilmarnock get in line with Aberdeen for Montrose's Boyle

Celtic, Kilmarnock and Aberdeen are jockeying for position to sign Montrose striker Martin Boyle.

The 19-year old has netted 22 goals for the Third Division club this season and is attracting interest from the Hoops, Killie and the Dons, who he has been training with despite recently signing a new contract with Montrose.

Boyle, who scored his first senior hat-trick in the weekend's 5-0 home win over Clyde, admits it has been great to experience life at Aberdeen and is open to the possibility of a permanent move there.

"Being in at Aberdeen has been absolutely fantastic," he told SunSport

"Craig Brown, Archie Knox and Neil Cooper have been terrific and my game has come on in leaps and bounds.

"I feel sharper and stronger and you can only get better working at a club like that.

"I'd love the chance to go full-time."
