Barcelona is about to turn the deal for Ousmane Dembele at 180 degrees, according to Footmercato. The reports from Sunday are that the Spanish side is still unwilling to sell the French international to PSG and is ready to accept an offer from Saudi Arabia instead.
As it is well known, PSG offers 50 million euros for Dembele, of which only 25 million will go into Barca’s accounts, because of a special clause in Dembele’s contract he signed last summer.
Today it is reported that Saudi club Al-Hilal offers bigger transfer fee to Barcelona, as well as an annual salary of 100 million euros to Dembele plus 50 million euros in commission. This proposal is liked by the club and it is most certain that the management will try to convince Dembele to accept the transfer.

At the same time PSG sent an email to Barcelona, asking for the club to organize Dembele’s medicals before the deal can go through, but there is still no answer from Camp Nou.
