Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers hopes that Moussa Dembele will remain with the Scottish giants beyond the end of the January transfer window.

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers is confident that Moussa Dembele will remain with the Scottish giants beyond the end of the January transfer window.

Dembele, who joined Celtic on a free transfer from Fulham in the summer, has scored 16 goals in 24 appearances for his Scottish club this term, including four times in the Champions League.

Manchester United, Chelsea, Manchester City, Barcelona, Real Madrid and Bayern Munich have all been linked with the former Fulham striker, but Rodgers is 'hopeful' that Dembele wants to continue his development in Scotland.

"Him and his agent, they want to learn and they want to develop. They could have gone to a number of clubs in the summer and got way, way more money than up here. But he wants to try and do it the right way," Rodgers told talkSPORT.

"I'm sure at some point later down the line it may happen, but it is certainly not something we are looking at now."

Last month, it was claimed that Celtic had placed a £40m asking price on the 20-year-old, who netted 15 times in the Championship for Fulham last season.
