Karamoko Dembele in 'very difficult' Celtic claim as he says Postecoglou 'didn't really like' his style

Karamoko Dembele says it's been difficult dealing with the hype that came with him at Celtic as he opens up on his exit from Parkhead.

The 19-year-old winger has signed a contract with French Ligue 1 club Stade Brestois 29 after his deal in green and white expired. Dembele was hailed as one of Europe's most exciting teenagers in his early teens after appearing in an U-20s match at the age of 13. That only translated into 10 senior appearances for Celtic though and his last campaign was marred by injury.

After suffering an injury in pre-season, the England youth international spent the first half of the campaign returning to fitness before struggling to make an impact in boss Ange Postecoglou's plans. Last term saw him play just two games and 20 minutes of senior football although he did feature for the club's youth squads. There is hope for the future though.
