Everton set to ramp up interest in Celtic striker

According to various reports in today’s English tabloids, Celtic striker Moussa Dembélé is also on the Toffees’ radar. The 21-year-old French youth international burst on to the scene with the Bhoys last season with a Champions League goal against Manchester City, as well as a hat-trick against city rivals Rangers in his first Glasgow Derby.
Meanwhile, West Ham United forward Diafra Sakho is also being linked with a move to the big-spending Merseyside club. The 28-year-old Senegalese frontman played under Allardyce during their time together in East London, and would be available for a relatively inexpensive fee.
The former Newcastle United and England tactician’s transfer kitty was boosted further last week when Ross Barkley’s long-anticipated transfer to Chelsea was confirmed as a done deal.
