Villarreal are allegedly planning to launch a summer bid for in-demand Celtic striker Moussa Dembele.
The La Liga outfit will bankroll a £15m offer for the Frenchman with some of the proceeds from the sale of Cedric Bakambu to Beijing Guoan in January, reports The Express.
Dembele, who is under contract at Celtic Park until the summer of 2020, attracted interest from the Premier League during the last transfer window, with Brighton & Hove Albion and Crystal Palace having targeted him.
The 21-year-old has played 36 games for Celtic this season and scored 15 times, but has often found himself on the subs' bench since speculation surrounding his future intensified.
Dembele has earned 12 caps for France at Under-21 level and has been tipped to break into the senior setup in the future.
