Karamoko Dembele has quickly settled into life at Stade Brestois 29 with the former Celtic star grabbing his first goal and a last minute winner against FC Lorient.
The ex-Hoops starlet netted in the 89th minute to hand his new club victory. It was their second pre-season friendly as preparations continue ahead of the new domestic season. The youngster only made the move to France less than a fortnight ago, but he has already given a glimpse of what he can offer after popping up to hit his last gasp goal.
His side won the ball back from a goal kick and set away on the counter-attack working the ball out wide on the right hand side. A nice slip ball allowed for a low cross to be played across the face of goal and after taking a nice first touch and adjusting his body shape, Dembele fired low into the right-hand corner of the net. His strike was met with a loud cheer from the supporters in attendance at the game.

Speaking after his arrival in France, he said: “I come to Brest because I saw that the project presented by Greg Lorenzi was good.
"It's something that suits me and I think I can have some playing time here. It was a great opportunity that presented itself to me and it interested me.
“I'm very explosive, I like to have fun and give it to the fans and of course I like to score and win”.
Dembele and Co play two more friendlies against Angers and Guingamp before starting their Ligue 1 campaign away at Lens.
