With today’s derby match postponed Celtic TV and the club’s social media platforms have decided to delve into the archives.
Even though he has been away from the club for 18 months it has been a fixture dominated by Moussa Dembele.
Who could forget his hat-trick on his derby debut, the cheeky back-healer to decide a Hampden semi-final or ‘whit’s the goalie dain Tam’ at Ibrox.
That’s a tough one… what about when we smashed them for the title at home? the double nutmeg back-heel? the Lustig? celebration? Jozo tackle? or when we kept the ball by the corner flag with @patrick7roberts ?too many memories! So… I’ll pick them all? #DerbyDayIsCelticDay https://t.co/ewCzStTlHi

In two seasons the French striker stamped his authority all over the fixture, from 1000 miles away his mind was clearly on Glasgow today.
Like everyone else Dembele’s football career is now in limbo as the full impact of the Coronavirus takes hold on society.
French football, Scottish football and the international game is on hold for the foreseeable future, for now fans and players have only memories to call on with Dembele’s more colourful and vivid than most.
