    * * mate, that's an odd post. What indication has he ever given that he's likely to act in this manner?

    If he goes, he goes. If he stays, great. But I want things to be clear, in either case.

    @Xatraps There are rumors Brendan might not let him go, if we can't find a replacement. If Dembele will throw a tantrum (hope not), then we just have to sell him.

    Celtic have rejected a second offer from Lyon today for French striker Moussa Dembélé, sources tell Get French Football News.

    The French youth international, whose current deal runs until 2020, at this rate could be one of a number of the Scottish champions’ bright talents to be blocked from seeking pastures new, where a better quality of European football is offered.

    Fellow Frenchman Olivier Ntcham indicated a strong desire to quit the club after failure to qualify for the Champions’ League, with FC Porto making a number of bids, but Celtic blocked him too.

    Ntcham is so resigned to not being able to acquire a move and thus the quality of football that he feels he needs to take the next step, that sources tell Get French Football News that he will sign an extension with the Scottish champions with a wage rise, which he sees as his only option.

    A similar situation has faced central defender Dedryck Boyata this summer, who had an initial offer from Lyon, but was barred from leaving Celtic.

    Boyata too is resigned to remaining at the club, despite receiving offers from Champions’ League playing outfits and having served the Scottish club well for three years.

    Celtic’s recruitment policy has been nothing short of exceptional in recent seasons, but now they face the uncomfortable reality of trying to hold on to players whose talent necessitates that they play for Europe’s elite clubs in the top European competition every year, which is now something that the Scottish champions cannot offer. The summer transfer window closes tomorrow.

    This is potentially a watershed window for Celtic, as the excellent young players they bring in year on year from France and elsewhere might think twice about joining if they cannot move on when they feel that the time is right.

    That last bit is interesting and probably right with future French youngsters (that's working so well) if he wants to go but they fail to recognise how bad the timing is for us with only a day left now..

    I wouldn't feel anywhere near the same about him leaving tbh.

    Good player with big potential but it's part of the game now. Especially for us.

    Kind of past getting so wound up about it.

    We lose good players * nilly nowadays Boruc, Forster, Denayer, Van Dijk, Ledley, Wanyama, Armstrong, Roberts, Samaras, Hooper.

    Only a matter of time before Boyata, Tierney, Ntcham, Dembele and Edouard are out the door, probably 2 years max none of them will be here. Probably Rogic as well.
