Would Celtic striker Moussa Dembele be a good signing for Tottenham Hotspur in the summer transfer window?

Former West Ham United striker Dean Ashton suggested on the Jim White show on talkSPORT on Monday morning (broadcast from 10m, July 24, 2017) that Tottenham Hotspur should make a move for Celtic striker Moussa Dembele in the summer transfer window.

The France Under-21 international is one of the best players at Celtic and is one of the best young strikers in entire Europe.

Dembele joined Celtic in the summer of 2016 on a free transfer after leaving Fulham at the end of the 2015-16 season.

The Frenchman was an instant success at the Glasgow giants, scoring 17 goals in 20 starts in the Scottish Premiership and three goals in six Champions League appearances last season, according to WhoScored.

According to Sky Sports, Marseille and Celtic held talks in Glasgow on Saturday regarding the transfer of Dembele.

It has been reported that Celtic are asking for a transfer fee in the region of £20 million to part company with the 21-year-old striker.

Former West Ham striker Ashton has suggested that Tottenham should be making a move for Celtic star Dembele in the summer transfer window.

“Moussa Dembele, if that is true – the talk with Marseille – Spurs should, without a shadow of a doubt, be in for someone like him,” said Ashton on the Jim White show on talkSPORT on Monday morning (broadcast from 10m, July 24, 2017). “Fantastic player.”
