Palace continue to monitor Celtic’s Dembele

Celtic striker Moussa Dembele is reportedly a transfer target for Crystal Palace, according to a report from Michael Gannon at the Daily Record.

The Frenchmen has enjoyed a successful few seasons at Celtic Park, scoring 48 goals in his 88 appearances since his move from Fulham back in 2016.

This form has seen the 21-year-old linked with many clubs around Europe, including Borussia Dortmund, Marseille, Chelsea and Juventus, and has also seen Palace once again show an interest, with Roy Hodgson’s men keeping tabs along with the other interested parties.

Dembele, who scored 16 goals in all competitions last season, still has two years left on his contract, although Celtic have accepted that their young striker could opt to move, leaving the Scottish club with a decision to make.

The report from Record Sport also states that they ‘understand’ that Dortmund are yet to make an official approach, although they have ‘identified him’ as a replacement for Chelsea loanee Michy Batshuayi after they were priced out of a move for the Belgian forward.
