And the Daily Record have reported that Celtic are already plotting a move for the defender next summer when his loan deal is up.
Duffy is under contract at Brighton until 2023 and attracted interest from a number of Premier League clubs before coming north to sign for Neil Lennon’s men.
Speaking yesterday, Duffy said: “I know the fans are optimistic and I am too so we are going to do the hard work and hopefully the reward is at the end.
“I’m delighted, obviously. It’s taken a little while to get it done but I’m over the moon. It’s something I’ve always dreamed of doing and to get the chance and the club to want me is a special moment for me and I’m really excited to get up there and get going.
“Hopefully I can bring success to the club.
“It’s been a long time coming.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
