Alistair Johnston is a target for several English sides following a World Cup with Canada. Everton manager David Moyes is reportedly interested. The Toffees have seen Seamus Coleman depart and Nathan Patterson is close to leaving. Fulham have also had a long-term interest. Johnston is settled in Scotland and has signed a new contract until 2029. A significant offer would be required to persuade the Hoops to sell. Parkhead chiefs are preparing for significant offers for Johnston.

Mark Hendry stated that Alistair Johnston's performances at the World Cup will have attracted the attention of other clubs, and that clubs will have the defender on their shortlist by the end of the tournament. Johnston is contracted at Celtic until 2029. There is no desire to sell, and no need to consider offers unless they are exceptional. Celtic remains in control of the situation regarding whatever interest follows after the tournament.

Offers may be made for Celtic's 27-year-old Canadian right-back, Alistair Johnston. Some of the financial terms being offered are described as potentially being difficult for both the player and the club to refuse.

According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €8.00m.
