PSG launching bid for Barcelona attacker Ousmane Dembele

PSG are launching a bid for Barcelona attacker Ousmane Dembele.

PSG see the Frenchman as a replacement for transfer-listed striker Kylian Mbappe.

RMC says the Parisian club are willing to pay Dembele's buyout clause, which is set at 50m until August 1, after which it increases to 100m.

However, even if they miss the deadline, PSG would be willing to negotiate a fee with Barca for the attacker.

Dembele's agent, Moussa Sissoko, assured Barca last month they had no intention of using the buyout option this summer.
