Chelsea defender Andreas Christensen believes that on his day Celtic forward Moussa Dembele is unplayable. Christensen is currently on loan with Borussia Monchengladbach, and was set to go head to head with Dembele tomorrow night in the Champions League, although an injury may prevent that.
Speaking to the Scottish Sun, Christensen said he’s already faced Lionel Messi and Sergio Aguero in the Champions League this season, and thinks they can be unstoppable when they are in form. The Chelsea youngster thinks the two Argentines can turn it on when they want, but also sees Dembele as being Celtic’s superstar.
“Already this campaign I have come up against Aguero and Messi, and they are unstoppable on their day. They are unplayable when they want to be and, in Dembele, Celtic have their own superstar,” said the Chelsea defender.
Dembele signed for Celtic in the summer from Fulham, despite the likes of Tottenham Hotspur showing a keen interest in the young forward. Dembele has already made himself a hero with the Celtic fans after his hat trick against Rangers, followed by his brace in the recent clash with Manchester City.
His performances over the past 12 months have also resulted in him being shortlisted for this year’s Golden Boy award, along with the likes of Marcus Rashford, Leroy Sane and Renato Sanches.
