Celtic secure Karamoko Dembele to pro terms

Celtic have secured 15 year-old Karamoko Dembele to pro terms.

The London-born youngster, who has featured for both Scotland's U16 side and England's U15 team, has had scouts raving about his potential.

And now the Bhoys have handed Dembele a deal at Parkhead until 2021.

Manchester City and Chelsea had been keen on the youngster.

Dembele said, "My goal is to play for the first team. As soon as I can, I'm going to try to get into the first team, 100 percent.

"In the Reserves, every training session, every game - it's all to prove myself to the manager that I can play in the first team."
