Barca agree £90m for Dembele

Barcelona has agreed to an upfront payment of £90million with Greman side Borussia Dortmund for the transfer of Ousmane Dembele, according to reports in Spain.

According to Diario Sport say a breakthrough in negotiations has seen the two clubs agree on the £90m initial payment, though add-ons are still to be negotiated with the Bundesliga side holding out for a further £27.3m.

The Catalan is in serious need of replacing Brazilian superstar Neymar who quit Nou Camp for Paris Saint-Germain earlier this month in a world record £198m transfer move. Bundesliga outfit Dortmund is determined to get full value for 20-year-old Dembele who scored 10 goals and 27 assists for German Cup winner last season.

Dortmund would want add-ons to be based on goals scored, appearances and trophies won during the French international time with the perennial Champions
