Tottenham Hotspur are believed to be close to signing Celtic striker Moussa Dembele, ahead of the summer transfer window.
According to a report in The Sun, Tottenham Hotspur are confident that Celtic striker Moussa Dembele will move to White Hart Lane in the summer.
Dembele nearly moved to Spurs in January 2016, but the deal for the forward to join from Fulham fell through.
Mauricio Pochettino is said to have kept close tabs on Dembele ever since, and the Argentine boss has been very impressed by the 20-year-old’s form at Celtic.
Dembele has hit 32 goals for Celtic in all competitions this season, and Pochettino is said to be a huge fan of the forward.
Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool have all been linked with Brendan Rodgers’ side’s star striker.
However, Spurs are said to believe that they have won the race to sign the French under-21 international.
Tottenham feel that Dembele will be part of their squad next term, as Mauricio Pochettino looks to improve his forward line.
Tottenham have struggled to find cover for Harry Kane in recent seasons, but they believe Dembele will have the capabilities to add to Pochettino’s options up-front.
