Football Transfer news: Barcelona close in on Ousmane Dembele’s new contract
Discussions are ongoing with Manchester United over the potential sale of Frenkie de Jong, and even though president Joan Laporta has insisted that he doesn’t want to let the Dutchman go, his departure could be pivotal to unlocking a number of other deals for Barca.
The French winger’s Camp Nou career has been up and down to say the least and it has seemed a near certainty for months that he would be leaving the club as a free agent.
That’s because a move for Leeds winger Raphinha is also now agreed, 90min has learned, with Leeds accepting a revised offer from Barcelona worth around €60m. The payment will still be staggered into a number of instalments, with various performance related add-ons also included, but provides Jesse Marsch’s side with more favourable terms.
Football Transfer news: Raphinha set to decide between Chelsea and Barcelona
Personal terms have long been agreed with Raphinha and his agent Deco, and the 25-year-old has essentially been waiting for Barcelona to find a way to finance the deal – he’s always wanted to prioritise a move to Camp Nou ahead of Premier League duo Chelsea and Arsenal.
Ousmane Dembélé. Barcelona and player’s camp are really close to find full agreement, matter of details – but new deal depends on Barça’s green light. Decision now up to Barcelona, more than Dembélé. 🚨🇫🇷 #FCB

Barcelona must now green-light both deals and decide which order to complete them in, while they continue to work on Lewandowski, Cesar Azpilicueta and Marcos Alonso – the duo both long-term targets who were discussed during a meeting with new Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly earlier this week.
