The Hoops’ hitman has attracted attention from Europe’s elite club following his prolific debut season at Celtic Park.
Chelsea made a move late in the January transfer window but Dembele stayed put in Scotland.
The 20-year-old only joined Brendan Rodgers’ side last summer from Fulham but has grown quickly.

West Ham were also knocked back having pursued a deal last month to solve their own striker problems.
But according to the Mirror, Bayern Munich have now joined the race, which could spell trouble for Chelsea.
Antonio Conte’s team are continuing to track Dembele’s progress, with a number of other Premier League clubs keeping the forward on their radars.

The chance to play at the Allianz Arena for Bayern Munich could prove tempting for Moussa Dembele
But German giants Bayern are set to provide strong competition, having signalled their intent through agents of the club they wish to sign Dembele.
The Frenchman penned a four-year contract at the start of the season, meaning Celtic can command a big fee for their top asset.
But the opportunity of joining Carlo Ancelotti’s side at the Allianz Arena could lure Dembele away from British football.
