Moussa Dembele has given an 'interesting' reaction to Leicester City appointing Brendan Rodgers.
The Lyon forward played under the Northern Irishman for two seasons before leaving to join the Ligue 1 side last summer.
He left Celtic in controversial circumstances, publicly criticising Rodgers and the club for their handling of Lyon's interest in him.

Ultimately, the Hoops had to sell Dembele -- with the manager insisting they had no choice.
And that led to Dembele getting a lot of criticism from supporters for the way the move came about.
Obviously Dembele hasn't been happy with the way he has been perceived throughout all of this.
So he's taken to Twitter in the immediate aftermath of Rodgers' appointment at Leicester:
BREAKING: @LCFC have confirmed the appointment of Brendan Rodgers as their new manager on a contract until 2022. 🦊📝
#AndIfYouDontKnowNowYouKnow #IToldYou
#CelticFC today announced that manager Brendan Rodgers will be leaving the Club to join @LCFC. Full statement below ⬇️ celticfc.net/news/15815
Dembele is, of course, referring to this tweet he sent shortly after leaving Celtic:
