Former Celtic striker and Dembelition expert, Moussa Dembele has come up as one of the most valuable players in Ligue 1 by a research group at the International Centre for Sports Studies – CIES Football Observatory.
The research takes all things into account like market inflation and what similar players have gone for in the recent past using algorithms to determine value.
They have valued Moussa Dembele at a whopping €70.3m – only behindJonathan Ikone, Neymar and Kylian MBappe.
The Lyon striker has come into his own and is the clubs talisman, just like he was at Celtic.
This news will be interesting to Celtic supporters and the club because any future fee will impact on what Celtic get from the sell on clause. Lyon want to keep their prized asset but there’s going to be a time when the Frenchman will move on and when he does Celtic should receive a cash boost.

The bhoys have cleared up in recent years by selling on players for huge profit but also adding in sell-on clauses. Virgil van Dijk’s move to Liverpool pocketed the club a fair amount at the time.
