Ayr United have confirmed the loan signing of 20-year-old winger Thomas Hatton from Celtic for the 2026/27 season. The move, subject to SFA approval, follows Hatton's strong performances during Celtic's pre-season campaign, including a standout display against AC Milan. Manager Gary Naysmith will oversee Hatton's integration into the Championship squad. The club's official statement welcomed the winger as part of their 'Honest Men' ethos, with a social media post celebrating the announcement. Hatton, who has made four appearances for Celtic, will now focus on adapting to Ayr's playing style under Naysmith. The SFA's approval remains a pending step before the transfer is finalized.
