Moussa Dembélé (born 12 July 1996) is a French professional footballer who plays as a striker for Scottish Premiership club Celtic.
Developed at Paris Saint-Germain and English team Fulham, he made his professional debut for the latter in the Premier League in November 2013, and totalled 19 goals in 64 competitive games for them before joining Celtic in 2016.
He has earned over 30 caps for France at youth level, and in October 2016 stepped up to the under-21 team.
Dembélé was born in Pontoise, Île-de-France. His family is Malian.
Dembélé signed for Fulham aged sixteen, from Paris Saint-Germain, in 2012. He subsequently became a regular in the Fulham U18 team and won the Premier Academy League in his first season with the club. He signed his first contract with Fulham in July 2013 until the summer of 2015.
Dembélé was an unused substitute for the Premier League match against Swansea City on 23 November 2013. He made his competitive debut a week later against West Ham United, coming on as a substitute in the 83rd minute for Kieran Richardson in a 3–0 loss at the Boleyn Ground, but finished the game with an injury. On 30 March 2014, he started for the first time in the Premier League, as Fulham lost 3–1 at home to Everton. The club ended the season with relegation to the Championship.
