Karamoko Dembele has taken to Twitter to express his delight after returning from injury to help Celtic’s reserves beat Morton earlier this week.

Dembele – who made his first-team debut for the Hoops last season – made his return in the 63rd minute of Tuesday’s contest, replacing Liam Burt as Celtic led 3-2.

It had been a turbulent game for the Bhoys. They came from behind to lead 3-1 shortly after the break. But the visitors threatened to set up a tense finish as they got one back just before the hour-mark.

However, it was Dembele who put the game to bed in the final minutes as he scored Celtic’s fourth from close range.

The 16-year-old is clearly looking to pick up where he left off last season. He was named in Neil Lennon’s matchday squad for the Scottish Cup final back in May, and may well be setting his sights on getting back into the first-team fold as soon as possible.

And following the win over Morton, the teenager took to social media to comment on his comeback and his goal.

And in response, plenty of Celtic fans lauded Dembele and suggested that they are looking forward to seeing him back in Lennon’s plans.

Here is Dembele’s tweet and some of the best fan responses…
