French international striker Ousmane Dembélé has been announced as a possible PSG recruit. Can this transfer really happen?
Paris SG already seems to be anticipating the post-Mbappé. The club is ready to sell its star if ever a courtier offers him €250m as transfer compensation. And, it is already fixed on the identity of the replacement of the Bondynois. It would be Ousmane Dembele.
The deal would already be closed according to the French press
According to Foot Mercato, the arrival of the former Rennes player with the French champions is even already complete. The interested party is in favor of it and Paris does not even need to discuss with the Catalan club because it is enough to lift the departure clause. This is around €50m until July 31st.
So, Dembélé future Parisian recruit? On the side of Spain, we are not so sure. The daily Sport even claims just the opposite. According to this source, there is no chance that the 2018 world champion will move this summer.
For the Spaniards, Dembélé will not move
Dembélé would be fully focused on the Barcelona project and has no desire to change air. Having become indisputable with Xavi, he decided to perform a 7e season at the club. A return to France would not be on the agenda in his agenda.
So who is telling the truth, who is saying the wrong? The answer will take shape over time, but it seems at first glance that the French press is getting a little carried away for the French international. The latter is well established at the Nou Camp and it is hard to see him swapping the Blaugrana tunic for that of the champions of France.
As a reminder, this is not the first time that his name has been circulating in Paris, but there has never been anything concrete. And history seems about to repeat itself.
