Manchester United are reportedly leading the race to sign Celtic’s star duo Kieran Tierney and Moussa Dembele.

Defender Tierney has been repeatedly linked with a move to the Premier League in recent weeks, with Arsenal, Liverpool, Man Utd and Tottenham all reportedly showing interest.

Dembele meanwhile is one of the most sought-after young attacking talents in world football, with AC Milan even reportedly making contact with the Scottish giants over a possible summer move.

Scouts from 17 Premier League clubs were watching Celtic’s Champions League tie with Bayern Munich on Tuesday night.

According to a report from the Daily Mirror, a double deal for Tierney and Dembele would cost in the region of £50 million, with Jose Mourinho interested in acquiring the pair.

The Mirror claim that United are indeed leading the chase for both players, having held long-term interest in the duo.
