A report claims that Manchester United are closely monitoring the performances of Celtic's in-demand forward Moussa Dembele.

Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho has reportedly sent scouts to keep an eye on the progress of Celtic forward Moussa Dembele.

The 20-year-old, who joined Celtic from Fulham in the summer, has scored 15 times in 21 appearances for the Scottish champions this season - including four times in the Champions League.

Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Real Madrid have all been credited with an interest in the Frenchman and according to the Daily Record, Man United are now also very much in the picture.

The report claims that the 20-time English champions had scouts present at the Scottish Premiership clash between Celtic and Ross County on Wednesday night, where Dembele netted his 15th goal of the campaign.

Earlier this month, Celtic majority shareholder Dermot Desmond revealed that he was 'hopeful' of keeping in-demand Dembele at the club.
