Chelsea are reportedly interested in signing Karamoko Dembele from Celtic in the summer transfer window after bringing in Billy Gilmour from Old Firm rivals Rangers.
It has been reported by the British tabloid that the Premier League giants have started moves to secure the services of the talented and promising teenager this summer.
Dembele is only 14 years of age and operates as a winger, but the youngster has also played for Celtic’s Under-20 side.
Chelsea recently signed 16-year-old midfielder Billy Gilmour from Rangers for a development fee reported by Sky Sports to be worth £500,000, and it seems that they now want to sign another talented teenager from Glasgow.
According to The Sun, Dembele signed a new contract with Celtic only in June, but Chelsea are still interested in him.
The 14-year-old has earned raved reviews for his performances for the Celtic youth teams and for the Scotland Under-16 side.
One can understand why Chelsea are (reportedly) interested in Dembele, but given that he is only 14 years of age, perhaps it would be better if the winger remains at Celtic for the time being.
