Celtic midfielder Scott Brown has told The Scottish Sun that Moussa Dembele and Odsonne Edouard are frightening when they play together.

Dembele and Edouard are two of the best strikers in Scotland and are key figures in the current Celtic team.

Brown, who has been on the books of Celtic since the summer of 2007 when he joined from Hibernian for a transfer fee reported by The Guardian to be worth £4.4 million, has spoken highly of the two young strikers.

The 33-year-old former Scotland international has also admitted that Celtic have missed 25-year-old midfielder Tom Rogic, who played for Australia at the 2018 World Cup in Russia earlier this summer.

Brown told The Scottish Sun: “Dembele and Edouard are frightening together up front, and they seem to have developed a really good partnership.

“That’s going to help us in the long run. The two of them are strong and fit, they both know the route to goal and that’s a great asset to have.”

The midfielder added: “Tom Rogic has been a big miss for us in pre-season, but he’s back and looking good in training.”

Achieving success

Celtic are the dominant force in Scotland and have won the domestic treble for the past two seasons.

The Glasgow giants will face some stiff competition from Rangers and Aberdeen for the Scottish Premiership campaign next season, but the Hoops should be able to get the job done in the end.
