According to L’Equipe (via the Daily Express), Manchester United have held talks with Celtic star Moussa Dembele over a proposed move to Old Trafford.
What’s the Story?
Reports in France suggest that Celtic star Moussa Dembele is in discussions with Manchester United over a proposed transfer in the summer. The 21-year-old striker reportedly held talks with the Red Devils in the summer but a move failed to materialise.
However, it is now believed that the Jose Mourinho is keen to re-negotiate with Dembele in an attempt to land him in the summer.
How good has Dembele been this season?
Once again, Moussa Dembele has demonstrated why he is the best player in Scotland and one of the brightest young attacking talents in Europe.
The former Fulham man has featured in 12 games for the Bhoys this season, scoring 7 times and winning high praise from both the fans and his manager Brendan Rodgers.
Would Dembele be a good signing for Manchester United?
Lightning quick and with fantastic dribbling and shooting ability, Dembele is certainly a genuine talent.
However, it would be interesting to see how the Frenchman, who is valued at £4.5million by Transfermarkt, would fare in the Premier League.
The lack of quality defenders in the Scottish Premiership allows Dembele to dominate games. He would certainly not be given the time and space on the ball south of the border than he is warranted north.
While he wouldn’t be an immediate starter for United, he is certainly a worthwhile investment for the future.
