Brendan Rodgers isn’t convinced that Moussa Dembele will still be a Celtic player after the transfer window.
The French striker has been the subject of transfer speculation since the moment that he scored a double against Manchester City in the Champions League.
Speculation has been rife about bids coming in during the last two transfer windows with nothing concrete emerging.
Brendan Rodgers also asked how confident he was #Celtic would keep hold of Moussa Dembele beyond January.
“I can’t say either way. You just never know. But at this moment in time Moussa is here and training. We shall see.”

Dembele has previously been linked with the elite Champions League clubs but a drop in his scoring rate and a couple of injuries have had a knock on effect on his value.
Brighton were reported to be preparing a bid at the turn of the year with the emphasis now on clubs from the bottom half of the EPL looking at the Celtic striker.
Rodgers has previously sounded bullish about holding on to Dembele but that attitude seems to have softened leading to suggestions that the player is more open to a move away from the six times Scottish champions.
