Prize guy Moussa Dembele has had a busy weekend on twitter.
The young striker had to contend himself with a place on the bench for Celtic’s 2-1 win over Dundee but that didn’t dampen his spirits in any way.
Dembele got on for the last 15 minutes but was unable to find the net as Celtic stretched their lead at the top of the table to 11 points.
After the game it was announced that the striker had won the Trophee de l’Espoir Français awarded by popular French TV show Telefoot.

During the course of 2016 Dembele has developed from being an up and coming teenager with potential through to one of the most watched young strikers in the game.
If he can maintain the form that he achieved in the early part of the season it seems certain that he’ll win a full France cap while helping Celtic to more domestic success with the Scottish Cup and SPFL heating up with the Betfred Cup trophy already secured.
In 24 starting appearances for Celtic Dembele has scored 17 goals.
