Celtic wonderkid Karamoko Dembele scores stunning goal in Ireland as he's named player of the tournament

AT just 14, Celtic prospect Karamoko Dembele has already made his fair share of headlines.

The youngster first came to prominence in October 2016 when, aged 13, he made his debut for Celtic’s under-20 side.

He is also at the centre of a tug of war between Scotland and England, having featured for Scotland’s under-16s in November 2016 before pulling on the English jersey at under-15 level a month later.

Now the London-born winger has showcased his skills in Ireland at the Hibernia Trophy.

The underage tournament hosted by St Joseph’s Boys at Pearse Park in Dublin saw Dembele play with the Celtic under-15s.

Competing against youth teams from the likes of Wolves, Leeds and Sunderland, Celtic reached the final, only to lose 2-0 to Ipswich.

However Dembele was named Player of the Tournament and also scored a cracker against Poland’s Legia Warsaw.

Celtic will be hoping to hold onto their prized asset amid interest from Premier League champions Chelsea, although his latest achievements will only add to his growing reputation.
