Barcelona have agreed a deal of £138m with Borussia Dortmund for the
transfer of France international winger Ousmane Dembele.
He is to undergo his medicals on Monday and will sign a five year deal
with the Catalans.
A release clause of £400m has been inserted in his contract.
The 20 year old joined Dortmund a year ago for a fee of £13m and ended
up with 10 goals and 21 assists in all competitions in his first
season outside France.
He featured in Dortmund's first match of the season the Super Cup
defeat to Bayern Munich on 5th August. But amidst a bid from Barcelona
that was initially rejected after the sale of Neymar, he subsequently
went on strike when he traveled to France without the permission of
his club. An action that a drew an indefinite suspension to be slammed
on him.
With the agreement reached between both clubs, one of the transfer
sagas of the summer have come to amicable end.
