“Larsson-esque – I’m grateful for the comparison with the King,” Moussa Dembele’s response to The Celtic Star

Last night Lubo98 posted an article on The Celtic Star featuring the stunning goal scored by former Celtic striker – and legendary skelper Moussa Dembele. The article was titled “Former Celtic favourite Moussa Dembele scores Larsson-esque goal for Lyon.”

What he didn’t expect was that his headline would attract the attention of Moussa himself who was clearly flattered by Lubo98’s comparison with the King of Kings and also wanted to send a wee message to The Celtic support ahead of tonight’s Glasgow Derby where a win will send Celtic to the top of the league.

“Larsson-esque – I’m grateful for the comparison with the King. Wish you guys to do the job as well tomorrow,” was Moussa response to Lubo98’s headline on The Celtic Star.
