Celtic have two brilliant strikers in Moussa Dembele and Leigh Griffiths.
Lubomir Moravcik has told The Glasgow Evening Times that Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has a “great problem”.
The former Celtic midfielder has highlighted the fact that the Bhoys have two brilliant strikers competing for a place in the starting lineup.
Leigh Griffiths is one of the best strikers in the Scottish Premiership and was arguably the Hoops’ best player last season.
The 26-year-old Scotland international, though, is not guaranteed a place in the Celtic starting lineup at the moment due to the current form of Moussa Dembele.
Dembele, who joined the Glasgow giants in the summer transfer window, has been scoring goals for fun so far this season, both in the Scottish Premiership and in the Champions League.
The 20-year-old French forward has already established himself as a key player for the Hoops.
“It is a great problem for the coach to have – and far better to have two forwards that you know will score goals than only one,” Moravcik told The Glasgow Evening Times.
“I was at the player of the year dinner at Celtic Park at the end of last season and I spoke to Leigh; I thought some of his goals were very good and he is a really instinctive, clever forward.
“He has not lost that. He will always be counted on for goals. But I can also see how well Moussa Dembele has done.
“He is very good, a really good signing for the club. He is so powerful and although he can still look a bit raw, there is something very exciting about him to watch.”
Celtic are at the top of the Scottish Premiership table at the moment with 31 points from 11 matches. The Bhoys are 10 points clear of second-placed Aberdeen with a game in hand.
The Glasgow giants will return to action on Friday evening when they take on Kilmarnock away from home at Rugby Park in the Scottish Premiership.
