Neil Lennon: Last News

Celtic wonderkid, who played for their under-20s side at just 13, has signed for Ligue 1 outfit Stade Brest on a free transfer.Karamoko Dembele, 19, was tipped for stardom at Parkhead when representing the Bhoys' youth side seven years underage but failed to kick on from his initial promise.
