Karamoko Dembele has been linked with a surprise transfer to Danish side FC Nordsjaelland. The ambitious outfit have identified Dembele as a potential transfer target and with the 18-year-old having just one year remaining with the club. According to The Scottish Sun, Dembele is seen as a replacement for Manchester United target Kamaldeen Sulemana.
The Danes believe that they have the perfect setup to entice Dembele but Celtic should resist any attempts to move him and instead, look to integrate him into the first team and offering him a path to development as a regular first teamer.
The youngster scored his first goal for the club in a win over St Johnstone earlier this month. The promising attacker came on for James Forrest in the second half and made an immediate impact, finding the net with a smart finish. Hopefully, Celtic will reap the rewards of Dembele’s obvious talents next season with a new manager coming in.
John Kennedy helped integrate Dembele but the season was already done, many thought that this was due to the youngster running down his contract but Kennedy confirmed he had a year remaining. Why then was he given cameos here and there when guys that wouldn’t be there next season where afforded more minutes on the pitch.
