da betcris: Karamoko Dembele is the crown jewel in Celtic’s academy.
da cassino online: The diminutive winger is a beacon of shining light as the Hoops aim to carry their dominance into the current decade. A Scottish Premiership title win this campaign would take their tally to nine in a row.
With Neil Lennon at the helm, they’ve continued the groundwork established by Brendan Rodgers, but one of the men aiming to take their haul to 10, 11 and 12 will likely be Dembele.
The 17-year-old burst onto the scene at the age of 16 towards the end of last campaign and has already earned rave reviews from supporters.
He is a frighteningly good player for his age. The very fact he was playing U20 football at the age of 13 sums that up. He has been in terrific form for the reserve side this term, also earning three appearances for the senior side. The teenager scored twice last week as the Hoops’ reserves beat Hamilton.
Dembele was inspirational as he rifled home in the first half via the crossbar before showcasing his dribbling ability by dancing through the defence to net a second.
This is a generational talent, but he may just have a player capable of rivalling him for a role in the first-team.
That happens to be Cameron Harper, a youngster who starred alongside Dembele when the duo netted against Huddersfield towards the end of January.
The 18-year-old was recently speaking to Celtic TV and revealed his qualities: “I feel like I’m quite dangerous, I feel like I’m an exciting player. If I get the ball I can make things happen.
“So I like to get the ball in dangerous areas and I feel like something in the front three is where I am going to make the most impact.”
Possessing the ability to play across the front three is something Dembele has in his locker, although he is preferred on the wings.

The pair might be teammates in the reserve side, a natural rivalry could develop between the two when it comes to challenging for a role in the senior side.
Dembele is currently ahead of Harper in the pecking order but the latter has lofty ambitions. “Everyone’s target in the reserves is to make their first-team debut. I know I need to be patient and I feel like if I keep working hard and playing well then the chances will come,” he commented in October 2019 (Celtic View, Issue 15).
Both teenagers have been in the goals recently so Lennon is sure to have an eye on the two attackers for the future. Who makes a better career in the game remains to be seen.
