Barcelona has agreed to sell Dembele to PSG for 50 million euros.
Remember that according to the contract, the amount of Dembele’s release, which was 50 million euros, was to double on August 1.
According to Mundo Deportivo, Dembele and Barcelona have a verbal agreement in which the Catalan club has committed to release Dembele for a fee of 50 million if he announces his wish to leave before July 31.
The Frenchman did this before July 31 “at the right time and in the right form,” so the “Blaugrana” is obligated to agree to sell it for 50 million euros.
It should be noted that Barcelona still expects to get more than 50 million euros from PSG for Dembele, despite the fact that the club will only receive 25 million euros under the terms of the contract, with the other half going to Dembele.
Last season, the 26-year-old winger has 8 goals and 9 assists in 35 games.
Barcelona agrees to sell Osumane Dembele to PSG
The transfer of Osumane Dembélé to PSG is worth 50 million euros.
Dembélé agreed to be transferred for that sum if he informed Barcelona about his desire to leave before July 31.
Dembélé and his agents never wanted to go under the termination clause. But they instead sought an agreement between clubs for his departure, according to Mundo Deportivo.
Barcelona has to agree to the move for 50 million, of which 25 will be for Barcelona and 25 for Dembélé and his representatives, due to the private arrangement with Dembélé when he elected to renew downward.
The French player informed Barcelona of his intention to enforce that article of his individual agreement before July 31; that is, in the proper time and form. As a result, the Catalan club must negotiate his departure.
Barcelona hopes to extract some improvement from PSG through discussion. That is, go above and beyond the 25 million that would correspond to him.
Barcelona made a significant investment in Dembélé. They believe that in his six seasons at the club, he has increased his value despite several injuries.
