Celtic hero Moussa Dembele has held "secret" transfer talks with Manchester United, according to a report in France.
The 26-year-old revealed earlier this month he's targeting remaining with Lyon despite their purchase of Alexandre Lacazette as a free agent from Arsenal. Dembele returned to form last season with 22 goals in 36 appearances. But now Media Foot claim the former Parkhead star is locked in talks with Erik Ten Hag's side amid Cristiano Ronaldo 's uncertain future. The football icon wants out at Old Trafford but has yet to find a suitor willing to make their move.
United 's interest in Dembele is long-standing with the former France U21 star scouted regularly over the past six seasons. It's understood he featured prominently on the Red Devils' wishlist while Jose Mourinho was in charge. And he was watched by United among other English Premier League big hitters last season, as he was a bright spark among a season to forget during Peter Bosz's first campaign at the helm.
