Celtic lost talented midfielder Aidan Borland to Aston Villa due to their decision to not make the youngster part of a matchday squad against Rangers, according to The Athletic.

Borland, who was born in Glasgow, was part of Scottish giants Celtic’s academy system and is highly rated in Scotland.

The 17-year-old featured heavily for Celtic’s academy side and he caught the attention of Villa’s scouts with his performances and continued development.
