Arsenal are keeping close tabs on Celtic striker Moussa Dembele after his bright start to life for the Scottish champions, according to The Sun.

The 20-year-old moved to Parkhead from Fulham over the course of the summer and has already shown why he is rated so highly be manager Brendan Rodgers.

Dembele has struck five times in four starts domestically for the Hoops, while he also scored twice as Celtic drew 3-3 with Manchester City in the Champions League on Wednesday night.

The report suggests that Arsene Wenger has instructed his scouting network to keep a close eye on the prodigious attacker and report back.

However, it is believed that the Premier League side will have competition for Dembele’s hand if he is to be pried away from Celtic, with both Bayern Munich and Real Madrid both said to have an interest in the French forward.

Arsenal reinforced their attacking options over the course of the summer with the acquisition of Lucas Perez from La Liga side Deportivo La Coruna.
