Celtic are ready to sell Moussa Dembele to a Premier League club in the summer transfer window, according to The Sun.

It has been reported that English giants Manchester United and Chelsea are interested in the French striker.

The Glasgow giants are looking for a replacement, according to the report, which also claims that 19-year-old forward Dominic Solanke, currently at Chelsea, is the favourite to replace Dembele at Celtic.

Bad or good move?

Dembele has been one of the best players for Celtic this season and is, without doubt, one of the best strikers in the Scottish Premiership.

The 20-year-old, who joined the Bhoys in the summer of 2016 after leaving Fulham at the end of last season, has scored 32 goals in 49 appearances in all competitions for the Glasgow giants this season.

It would come as a huge disappointment to the Celtic fans if Dembele is sold, but if the Glasgow giants get a good transfer fee, then they could invest it to sign a suitable replacement and perhaps one or two other new players in the summer.
