Ousmane Dembele set to depart Barcelona after receiving offer from Paris Saint-Germain

Barcelona's manager, Xavi Hernandez, confirmed on Tuesday that winger Ousmane Dembele is on the verge of leaving the club after receiving an offer from Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). Dembele, 26, was left on the bench during Barcelona's 1-0 victory over AC Milan in Las Vegas, marking the conclusion of their North American pre-season tour.

Following the match, Xavi informed Spanish television that Dembele, who had scored in the recent victory against Real Madrid in Dallas, expressed his desire to leave the Spanish giants. The French international revealed that he had a proposal from PSG and was set on accepting it. With one year left on his contract with Barcelona, Dembele's personal decision could lead to his departure.

Xavi disappointed

Xavi expressed disappointment at the winger's choice, stating that Barcelona had taken good care of him to ensure his happiness and contributions to the team. Nonetheless, Dembele made it clear that he had made up his mind and intended to pursue the offer from the French club.


Dembele joined Barcelona in 2017 and has since been a part of the team's attacking lineup. His potential departure will be a notable change for the La Liga giants.

Meanwhile, Barcelona's victory in Las Vegas came courtesy of a sensational second-half goal from Ansu Fati. The match was settled in the 55th minute when a counter-attack initiated by Barcelona's young left-back, Alejandro Balde, culminated in a pass to Fati inside the Milan area. The 19-year-old forward skillfully cut in from the left before unleashing a magnificent shot into the top corner, securing the team's win.

As Dembele's potential transfer saga unfolds, fans and football enthusiasts await official announcements from both clubs to confirm the winger's departure from Barcelona and his move to PSG.
