The offices of the Parc des Princes aren't slacking this summer. While trying to deal with the mess surrounding Kylian Mbappe, they also have kept their fingers on the pulse regarding Ousmane Dembele, and could be close to bringing the Barcelona winger to Ligue 1.
This comes according to 'RMC Sport', who also write that the Frenchman looks well on the possibility of returning home to play football. This summer is also the perfect moment to make it happen, as the same outlet reports that the deal would cost €50 million, the price of his buyout clause.
However, the clock is ticking on the move. Once we get to August 1st, the same clause will double, reaching €100 million, which means the French side would need to have everything wrapped up before July 31st.
Despite the fact that various outlets report that the transfer is linked to the possible exit of Mbappe, the aforementioned outlet reports that the club sees a trident to be formed with Mbappe (left), Dembele (right) and a centre forward yet to be signed.
It seems that Neymar doesn't have a place in Luis Enrique's front line, and the door remains open for him to leave. In the meantime, the Spanish coach is impatiently waiting for the arrival of Dembele, one of the requests he made to the sporting directive when he arrived.
Regarding the transfer, 'L'Equipe' reported a few months ago that of the €50 million that PSG would pay, €25 million would go to the Spanish club and the other half would be split between the player and his agents.
