Ousmane Dembele confirmed his move to PSG from Barcelona for £43.5m (50.4m euros).
Paris St-Germain (PSG) is delighted to announce the completion of signing France striker Ousmane Dembele from Barcelona for a fee believed to be £43.5m (50.4m euros).
France international, Ousmane Dembele has agreed with the terms and has signed a five-year contract with the Ligue 1 champions (PSG).
Dembele will be a vital addition to PSG's forward line as he provides versatility and goals as he joins his hometown club.
Dembele rose through the ranks at Stade Rennais. The winger featured in 29 appearances for Rennes while netting 12 goals.
He then moved to Germany to join Borussia Dortmund in 2016. Dembele played 50 matches for the club scoring 10 times.
Lastly, he joined FC Barcelona in 2017 and has played in 185 matches, netting 40 goals and making 42 assists.
Dembele joined Barcelona for the then-record fee of 147 million euros as the Catalans replaced him with Neymar, who left for PSG.
But he suffered a lot of injuries throughout his six-year stint in Spain.
In 127 La Liga appearances for Barcelona, he scored 24 times (A34). Last season, he featured in 25 La Liga games while scoring five times and providing seven assists.
For Barcelona, he bagged three La Liga titles in the 2017-18, 2018-19, and 2022-23 seasons.
He won the Copa del Rey twice in 2017-18 and 2020-21 and also won a couple of Supercopa de Espana honors in 2018 and 2022-23.
Dembele won the FIFA 2018 World Cup with France.
