Celtic striker Moussa Dembele is reportedly on the radar of AC Milan.

According to a recent report in The Scottish Sun, AC Milan are interested in signing Moussa Dembele from Celtic in the summer transfer window.

Dembele was in stunning form for Celtic this past season and is one of the best young strikers in entire Europe.

The 20-year-old scored 32 goals in 49 appearances in all competitions for the Bhoys in 2016-17, according to the club’s official website.

It does not come as a surprise that Milan are (reportedly) interested in Dembele, but the striker should ignore the Italian club.

Milan are one of the biggest clubs in the world and have a global fanbase, but in recent years they have been nothing more than mediocre on the pitch.

The Rossoneri are failing to even quality for the Champions League and are not in a position to challenge for Serie A anytime soon; they are a fallen giant who are not going to return to their former glory for a few more years at least.

Leaving Celtic for Milan in the summer would be a step down for Dembele and would not bode well for his career.

What Dembele needs right now is a stable club where he can grow and develop; Celtic is perfect for that.
