Lots of Celtic fans have been reacting to a rather bizarre transfer report, as one of Moussa Dembele’s teammates has claimed Celtic were ripped off when they sold the striker.

Celtic fans were furious when Dembele left on deadline day, mainly because his late departure meant they couldn’t sign a replacement.

It was becoming glaringly obvious that the Frenchman wanted to leave the club, but the timing of the deal meant Brendan Rodgers had no time to reinvest the £20m in his squad.

According to The Daily Record, the deal was worth £19.8m, but Dembele’s France U21 teammate Seko Fofana says it should have been closer to £40m.

“He is a complete attacker, who can use his head, left foot, right foot and also defend. His delivery is good, he’s clean technically, he is a big, strong guy,” Fofana told L’Equipe.

“I was told that he cost Lyon £20m, but Moussa is worth at least double.”

Celtic fans were understandably frustrated by their failures in the transfer market this summer, and £40m could make a huge difference to next season’s kitty.

Needless to say though, Fofana isn’t exactly a transfer expert, and fans are bashing the youngster’s assessment of the deal.
