Everton have been linked with Celtic striker Moussa Dembele.

Chris Sutton suggested on BT Sport 1 last Sunday afternoon (2:06pm) that Celtic are in danger of losing Moussa Dembele in the January transfer window.

Dembele is one of the best strikers in the Scottish Premiership and is one of the best young players in entire Europe.

The France Under-21 international has had injury concerns this season, but when he has been fit and has played, he has been superb.

Former Celtic striker Sutton has suggested that Celtic could lose the promising and talented 21-year-old in the January transfer window.

Sutton said on BT Sport 1 last Sunday afternoon (2:06pm) during the post-match coverage of the Scottish League Cup final between Motherwell and Celtic when asked if the Hoops will be able to keep Dembele beyond January: “I think they are going to be really tested.

“I look at clubs down south like Everton, the money going around down south. They don’t have a centre-forward in Moussa Dembele’s league. Celtic are going to be severely tested.”

Dembele has been linked with a move to Everton, with The Daily Mail crediting the Toffees with interest in the former Fulham youngster.

It is hard to see Celtic sell the Frenchman in January even if they are offered a lot of money, although one should not be surprised if the Glasgow giants decide to cash in on the Frenchman next summer. After all, the Bhoys have sold some of their best players in recent years.
