Liverpool, West Ham mark Dembele too laidback to worry - Celtic skipper Brown

Celtic skipper Scott Brown says that striker Moussa Dembele is the most laid-back guy who doesn't let constant transfer talk get to him.

The 20-year-old has been a revelation for the Hoops following his move from Fulham in the summer and has already scored 17 goals this season.

Dembele's prolific performances have seen him linked with the likes of West Ham United and Liverpool, and some reports have even suggested that the the Glasgow giants are prepared to sell him for £30million.

Brown said: "He is so chilled-out. He comes into training, does his bit and that's him.

"There's no 'look at me, I'm going for £20m or £25m'. We start at 9.15am on the dot. He just swaggers in at 9.15am on the dot.

"He's the most laid-back guy in the world. He just works, trains, does his bit in the gym.

"If you walk past him, he has his music on and he's just happy with that. He's just at ease. Nobody has even mentioned anything to him.

"If it's going to happen, it's going to happen and you don't want to start putting things in his head or doubting him."
