Brendan Rodgers has denied that Celtic are in talks with Marseilles about the sale of Moussa Dembele.
Sky Sports were first to run with the story on Monday morning with the usual suspects picking it up with glee including a ridiculous £20m price tag.
Dembele has three years left on his contract and has never given any indication that he is looking to leave Celtic.

Evert since he scored twice against Manchester City Dembele has been constantly linked with a move elsewhere.
Towards the end of the January transfer window Sky Sports were claiming that Chelsea had put in a bid of around £30m but that was denied by the English side.
With Leigh Griffiths suspended for Wednesday’s match against Rosenborg Dembele is the only striker available to Rodgers.
Unfortunately the former Fulham striker missed training today to work out on his own and is an injury concern for the visit of the Norwegian champions.
