Ousmane Dembélé will sign with Paris Saint-Germain from Barcelona with a private clause.
🚨 Xavi is very disappointed with Ousmane Dembélé.
Just last week, the player told him again that his biggest dream was to win the Champions League with Barça.

The Parisian club did not trigger his 55 million dollar La Liga release clause. The clause was valid until August 1st and is now invalid as the new one is for 110 million dollars.
However, the Ligue 1 champion sent a formal letter to the Catalan club yesterday, triggering a ‘private clause’ in the French attacker deal.
The private clause is the same amount as the one that expired – 55 million dollars, but PSG has until the end of the week to finish the transfer.
The French side is positive that they will be able to get it done within the next few days, as Dembélé will complete medical tests as soon as possible.
Ousmane wants the transfer and will ink a deal until the summer of 2028. Everything can be finished even until the end of the day.
