Chelsea are still awaiting Dembele’s response
Unless the situation turns around, Chelsea will make a contract offer to Ousmane Dembélé… but not before this summer.
Dismissed from the Catalan group after refusing to extend his contract with FC Barcelona, Ousmane Dembélé finally made the decision to stay at the club until the end of the season. Free in June, the French will therefore leave Barça for free, as explained by its president Joan Laporta. “We made him two proposals, both good ones. We are very surprised that he did not accept. He received a last offer from an English club and he didn’t want it. He preferred to stay here for six months. It’s not good for him or for the club…. It is believed that he has an agreement with another club. That’s what his agent insinuated. »
It remains to be seen which club will meet the salary demands of Dembélé, who has often been plagued by injuries in recent seasons. According to information from Sky Sports, the favorite is called Chelsea, who waited for the end of the winter transfer window to embark on the boarding. The British media ensures that the Blues will start negotiations with the former Rennais and his agent at the beginning of the summer, to complete a big transfer at zero euros. At Chelsea, Ousmane Dembélé could thus find Thomas Tuchel, whom he rubbed shoulders with at Borussia Dortmund.
