Arsenal Named As One Of Four European Clubs Pursuing Celtic Teenage Sensation

Arsenal, Juventus, Paris Saint-Germain and Borussia Dortmund are all keen on Celtic youngster Karamoko Dembele, according to TEAMtalk. The website reports that the Gunners are looking to snap up a second Celtic player following the capture of Kieran Tierney in the summer.

Dembele made his senior debut for the Hoops at the back end of last season. He came on for the second half in the 3-1 win against Hearts back in May and looked very impressive.

However, since then, manager Neil Lennon has chosen not to use the 16-year-old, with the winger having regularly featured for the club’s Under 20s this season.

Dembele is eligible to play for either Scotland or England. He was born in London but was brought through the youth system at Celtic, and has already played for England Under 16s and Scotland’s Under 17s.

Celtic would be very reluctant to let the teenager leave, especially after handing him a new contract last year.
