Ousmane Dembele’s transfer from FC Barcelona has been greatly aided by this news for Chelsea.
The French international’s contract expires in two days, thus the club dramatically lowered the initial offer made to him.
The player will soon decide whether to sign with Chelsea or stay at Camp Nou.
Moussa Sissoko, the player’s representative, met with Barcelona on Monday, but the Catalan club made it clear that nothing will be added to the contract proposal they already had prepared for him.
According to L’Equipe, Dembele has been offered a contract of around €6 million (£5.1 million) a year, a significant decrease from his present agreement worth €11 million (£9.5 million) a year.
According to the rumor, Dembele is currently carefully debating a counteroffer from Chelsea.
Following the club’s ownership transition, the Blues hope to make the French star one of their first high-profile signings this transfer window.
Additionally, Thomas Tuchel is claimed to have continued to be a major supporter of Dembele despite having previously managed the French winger while the two were teammates at Borussia Dortmund.
