Chelsea announcement could be next week – board offer star four-year £300.000-a-week deal

Both Chelsea and PSG are the two leading clubs for the potential services of Dembele – as they can both offer Champions League football and the £350,000-a-week wages that he reportedly desires

However – it seems that Chelsea will have a clear run at signing Dembele as it has not been claimed in the Sun that PSG have decided that they will not be making a move for the Frenchman

The report says Barcelona’s hopes of starting a bidding war for the winger are dead as new PSG sporting director Luis Campos is said to have vetoed a move for the French international.

And the reports goes on to suggest that Chelsea could announce the signing of Dembele as early as next week – after offering the Frenchman a four-year contract worth close to £300,000-a-week

There has been so much speculation surrounding the player and a possible move to Chelsea – many people have started to get confused as to what is actually going on

If he does leave Barcelona over the next few months – it may be a massive mistake to come to the Premier League – he is not built for the English game

Tuchel may feel he can get the best out of Dembele – but unless that is in the Bundesliga or the French League – it will not happen
