The Frenchman has toasted a day he holds in high regard after time spent in Glasgow.

He hasn't been shy in the past of airing his Celtic love - and there's one derby memory that rules them all for Moussa Dembele.

The striker was a nemesis for his opponents during his two years in Scotland under Brendan Rodgers, and it was the matches with Rangers he shone brightest. As he turned 21, the French forward delivered one of his most brutal lessons to the Light Blues as he scored three in a 5-1 victory over Mark Warburton's men at Parkhead.

Scott Sinclair and Stuart Armstrong goals sealed a fine day for Rodgers' men and it is a game that has stuck with the Ettifaq striker ever since. Taking to Twitter on the six-year anniversary of the game and his 27th birthday, the Celtic hero shared a response to a clip shared of the game on social media, with it very much in his head to this day.

He said: "Dembelition birthday. The derby of derbys. Celtic FC 5-1 Rangers. A complete demolition forever in my memory."
