Manchester United send scout to watch Celtic hero Moussa Dembele

Manchester United sent a scout to Dingwall on Wednesday night to run the rule over Moussa Dembele as Celtic moved seven points clear at the Premiership summit.

The 20-year-old Frenchman started on the bench as Rodgers made eight changes to the starting line-up that defeated Rangers on Sunday. But he came on for the final 32 minutes, tapping home in injury-time for his 15th goal of the season.

It is believed a representative of the Old Trafford club was at the Global Energy Stadium to watch Dembele, further reflecting the exceptional impact he's made since his summer move from Fulham.
