West Ham United had been interested in signing Celtic striker Moussa Dembele.

According to the Daily Mail, Celtic have told West Ham United they will have to pay a staggering £30 million for Moussa Dembele.

Celtic are determined not to lose Dembele in January, unless an irresistible offer comes in.

West Ham are known to be interested in the 20-year-old, but at £30 million they may be priced out of a deal.

Brendan Rodgers has already suggested that Dembele will not leave Celtic in January, and he is under no pressure to sell.

Dembele is understood to be happy to remain in Glasgow, despite interest from a number of Premier League clubs.

Dembele only joined Celtic last summer, but the huge impact he has made at Parkhead has not gone unnoticed.

Dembele has already netted 19 goals this season, and looks to be one of the most talented players in Scottish football.

West Ham also have interest in Brentford forward Scott Hogan and Sunderland striker Jermain Defoe, who could be cheaper alternatives.
