Lyon striker Moussa Dembele has congratulated Celtic on Twitter for winning against Rangers in the Old Firm derby.

Celtic got the better of Rangers 2-1 at Celtic Park in the Scottish Premiership on Sunday afternoon.

The Gers played most of the Old Firm derby with 10 men due to the dismissal of Colombia international striker Alfredo Morelos on 31 minutes.

Dembele was on the books of Celtic from the summer of 2016 until the end of the 2017-18 campaign.

The 22-year-old French striker – who is valued at €34.6 million (£29.8m) by the CIES Football Observatory – is pleased to see Neil Lennon’s side pick up all three points against Rangers.

James Forrest of Celtic scores his side's second goal during the Ladbrokes Scottish Premiership match between Celtic and Rangers at Celtic Park on March 31, 2019 in Glasgow, Scotland.

The win against Rangers means that Celtic are now 13 points clear of Steven Gerrard’s side at the top of the Scottish Premiership table.

The Bhoys look certain to clinch the title for the eighth season in a row, and with the Glasgow giants also in the Scottish Cup and having already won the Scottish League Cup, a third successive domestic treble is very much possible.
