Dembele ‘insistent’ on breaking into Celtic senior squad – Positive news

Celtic teenager Karamoko Dembele is attracting interest from some top clubs around Europe.

The youngster made his senior debut for the Hoops last season and The Athletic’s Celtic correspondent Kieran Devlin revealed during a live Q&A that he seems determined and ‘insistent’ on breaking into the first team this season.

The 16-year-old is one of the brightest prospects in Celtic’s ranks and the club will want to hold on to him for as long as possible.

Devlin also stated that Dembele seems to understand that staying at the Glasgow club could be the best choice in terms of his development.

Is this good news for the club?

We’re yet to see whether Dembele does move or not but judging by Devlin’s comments, he seems to have a mature head on very young shoulders.

Devlin pointed out that Dembele comes across as a very ‘level-headed’ character so its unlikely that he will make a rash decision regarding his future.

He’s enjoying his time at Celtic and the fans absolutely adore him so making a move doesn’t really make sense for him at this time. However, it is great to see that a player has such a calmness and positive mentality at such a young age.
