The Owls academy product revealed his joy at the switch.
But the Championship club are unhappy with Celtic over their conduct.
Former Hoops boss Neil Lennon announced the deal last month.
But an Owls statement said: “We are investigating this matter and will consider if there are any further steps available to protect the club’s interest.”
Shaw added: “By joining Celtic next season I will fight for a place in a team challenging for titles, trophies and to play in Europe.
“It is something I’ve always dreamed of.
“I thank Celtic for this amazing opportunity, which is impossible to turn down.”
