Premier League Opinion: 3 PL destinations for Lyon’s Moussa Dembele
According to a recent report by the Metro, Lyon’s star striker Moussa Dembele is being linked with a possible move to the Premier League this summer with a multitude of English giants said to be keen on his signature.
The Frenchman moved from Celtic to the Ligue 1 prior to last season and although he has now become a fan-favourite at Lyon, it looks like his successful stint is going to cut short.
It has been suggested that the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal have all made contact with Lyon about the possibility of bringing the Frenchman to England.
Although his signature is highly sought-after this summer, it doesn’t look like Lyon
While Manchester United are said to have launched a bid for the Frenchman sometime last month, Chelsea have been admirers of the striker’s talents since his days at Fulham.
Liverpool are looking for a player to effectively replace Daniel Sturridge in the side and Dembele fits the bill fairly well.
At Arsenal, Unai Emery is a massive fan of the big forward and he is said to be looking for a striker replace Alexandre Lacazette or Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, should either of them leave this summer
Here’s how he could perform at each of these 4 clubs:
Arsenal
The Gunners don’t actually need an addition striker in the ranks unless either of their star men leave in the summer. Although this is the case, Danny Welbeck’s inconsistency on the pitch means that a replacement certainly wouldn’t hurt Unai Emery’s cause.
Dembele’s brilliant numbers added to his movement up-front make him an ideal target for the Gunners.
Manchester United
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer must be thinking about a massive overhaul in the summer if they aim to challenge for the title next season.
Although United do have a lot of areas of concern that need to be addressed, it has to be said that the addition of Dembele to take Romelu Lukaku’s place in the starting line-up would be a smart move.
Chelsea
The Blues never-ending search for their next prolific striker continues and after the failed attempts of Alvaro Morata and Gonzalo Higuain, this summer could trigger Moussa Dembele’s chance in the Stamford Bridge limelight.
His strength and heading will come into play while his ability to finish the ball from impossible angles and distances makes him a good bet for the Blues.

Liverpool
The Reds finished the season on a massive high by securing the Champions League after a very long time. Although it was Divock Origi who scored the equaliser, him and Daniel Sturridge have both been quite undependable over the course of the campaign.
Signing Moussa Dembele could be the final piece to Jurgen Klopp’s Liverpool puzzle.
