Paris Saint-Germain are ready to sign FC Barcelona star Ousmane Dembele immediately.
The Ligue 1 champions have been linked with a move to sign Dembélé as part of a summer squad shake-up in the French capital.
PSG are reportedly pushing for a deal if Kylian Mbappé leaves the Parc des Princes in the coming weeks.
Dembélé’s contract at Barcelona expires in 2024 and negotiations are underway for a possible extension in Catalonia, as he seeks to make a firm decision on his future.
French and Spanish reports claim that PSG are open to a transfer if FC Barcelona are ready to give in.
Julien Laurens, French football expert for ESPNgave an update on the situation by announcing that PSG are close to completing a sensational transfer for the former Borussia Dortmund striker.
The journalist from ESPN claims that the French international has received an extension offer from Barça, but PSG are convinced that the player is more attracted to his project.
There are still details to be settled, but the negotiations between the player’s agent, Moussa Sissoko, and Luis Campos, the sporting director of PSG, are positive.
Some sources add that Barca coach Xavi wants to keep Dembele, whom he considers a key player, but the club knows a big transfer fee would help solve his financial problems.
The Catalans won’t be able to do anything if Dembélé accepts the transfer and PSG pay the release clause.
