Barcelona’s Ousmane Dembele has four options on the table for his future

Barcelona forward Ousmane Dembele will be a free agent in a week. Despite Xavi’s constant push and the player’s personal desire to continue, those representing the two parties are still failing to reach a middle ground.

And now that the situation is stuck, those willing to match his financial needs are waiting to pounce on the given opportunity. According to what Luis Rojo of MARCA is reporting, as many as three clubs in Chelsea, Paris-Saint Germain and Bayern Munich are willing to put forward a lucrative deal.

At Barcelona, the feelings are very much mutual. The player wants to stay and Xavi has been doing his best in order to convince the board. 

However, since the last meeting between the Barcelona and Dembele’s representatives, the team has not come up with a new figure. This potentially means nothing really has moved to date.

There is a growing sense of belief that Barcelona could, finally, come up with improved terms once the money from the sale of their assets comes pouring in. Before that, they are nothing but a sitting duck.

Meanwhile, the most favourable destination for the young Frenchman is Chelsea. One of the most overriding factors running in their favour is the presence of Thomas Tuchel, who has worked with Dembele during their time with Borussia Dortmund.

Now, Chelsea are also linked with Manchester City’s Raheem Sterling, but Tuchel’s idea to use the England international is to deploy him as a centre-forward and not as a winger.

PSG, on the other hand, have always been interested. Now that Angel Di Maria has left, the team sure has a vacant role to fill. Above all, since Kylian Mabappe is also continuing, their idea is to basically incorporate one Frenchman with the other.

Finally, as far as Bayern Munich are concerned, their interest has died out mostly due to the acquisition of Sadio Mane. In any way, the name of Ousmane Dembele is still on their list.

Now, it’s only upto the player to decide what will be his next course of action.
