The Frenchman who had to wait a long time for a chance to show what he can do burst onto the scene against Motherwell, bagging a hat-trick and the praise of his manager.
The striker left such an impression on the Celtic Manager Edourd was preferred to Leigh Griffiths on Tuesday when Celtic were in search of a goal against Anderlecht. Although the youngster didn’t score he looked sharp when he came on.
With The Frenchman on-loan and Celtic having first refusal on a permanent deal, Brendan Rodgers is about to unleash the striker as the fixture lost piles up before the winter shutdown.
Celtic’s first option on the striker is said to be around €8million – the thought might be, sell Dembele for record fee then use the cash to secure Odsonne Edouard on a long term dea should be impress between now and May.
