The 6'4" keeper played 90 minutes for the Gills against Spurs under-21s on Tuesday night.
He kept a clean sheet and impressed visiting scouts.
Walsh - who turns 18 in July - recently signed his first pro-contract with Gillingham.
He is dealt in until 2022.
Celtic's hopes to keep Fraser Forster beyond loan could be dashed - by Manchester United
Celtic already have Scott Bain and Craig Gordon on permanent deals behind loan goalie Fraser Forster.
Conor Hazard is also on the books and they signed teenage goalkeeper Tobi Oluwayemi earlier this summer.
