The Hoops spent much of the window searching for reinforcements on the left side of defence after it became clear Marcelo Saracchi would not be returning to Parkhead.
Amass emerged as one potential option, with The Athletic reporting that Celtic expressed an interest in the highly-rated 19-year-old following his successful loan spell at Sheffield Wednesday.
The youngster had been expected to leave Old Trafford permanently this summer, but Manchester United's failure to bring in another left-back means he is now set to remain at the club.
Celtic were far from alone in pursuing Amass. Stoke City, Birmingham City, Millwall, QPR and Burnley were also interested, with the latter reportedly having a £3.5million bid rejected.
Sporting in Portugal and recently-relegated Bundesliga side Wolfsburg were among his admirers on the continent.
