Arsenal look to Dembele

Arsenal have been linked with a move for Moussa Dembele with confirmation expected about Arsene Wenger’s new two year contract.

According to a report in The Metro the Celtic striker is one of three key transfer targets with the others being Kylian Mbappe of Monaco and Lyon midfielder Corentin Tolisso.

Dembele’s season faded out in the spring but with 32 goals including three in the Champions League group stage and a double for the French u21 side against England his quality isn’t in doubt.

Celtic snapped up the 20-year-old from Fulham for a token development fee and now rate him in the £30m bracket.

Dembele signed a four year contract with Celtic ahead of offers to stay in England in order to get the chance to work with Brendan Rodgers and play in the Champions League.

Celtic are in no rush to cash in on the striker with Dembele needed as their main attacking threat for the Champions League qualifiers.
