Ousmane Dembele news

Chelsea back in for Dembele?

Chelsea are still interested in signing Barcelona attacker Ousmane Dembele, Sport claims.



The west London giants attempted to land the World Cup winner during the January transfer window, but a deal did not materialise.

With just less than six months left on his contract, the Blaugrana were willing to sell him for €10m, but Dembele turned down the move.

Ahead of the summer, Dembele is likely to pursue a free transfer. Despite being snubbed in January, the Blues are planning a fresh approach.

Thomas Tuchel previously managed Dembele at Borussia Dortmund, and he is reportedly keen on a reunion with the Frenchman next term.

Dembele could be tempted by the prospect, but the Blues aren't alone in the pursuit. They are set to face competition from Paris Saint-Germain.

The French giants were also in the mix to land the attacker last winter, but Dembele was keen to see out the season before deciding his future.
