Several clubs in Saudi Arabia are keen to sign a PSG star, who has also recently been linked with Borussia Dortmund.
According to reports from Fichajes, Paris Saint-Germain forward Ousmane Dembele is being closely monitored by several clubs in Saudi Arabia.
At just 27 years old, Dembele might be on the verge of a significant career shift, with rumours suggesting a massive offer could be on the table, potentially luring him away from European football.
The reported bid is said to be around €100 million, a figure that would undoubtedly make both PSG and Dembele take notice.
Such an offer from the Middle East could prove difficult to refuse, as it represents a game-changing sum in today's transfer market.
For PSG, who only recently brought Dembele into their ranks after his stint at FC Barcelona, the chance to recoup such a sum might be too good to pass up.
Saudi clubs to offer €100 million for PSG forward amid Borussia Dortmund links
Dembele's impact at PSG has already been notable. Since arriving in Paris, he’s become an integral part of their attacking lineup.
He’s often been a game-changer for the French giants, contributing to their attacking threat with his creativity and agility. However, with the eye-watering sums on offer from Saudi clubs, both the player and PSG could be tempted by the prospect of a lucrative deal.
For a player of Dembele's calibre, with his experience in top European leagues like La Liga and Ligue 1, a switch to the Saudi Pro League might be quite appealing, fitting in well with the country's ambition to boost its footballing profile.
Interestingly, Borussia Dortmund, where Dembele made his name before his move to Barcelona, have also been linked with a potential interest in bringing the Frenchman back.
For now, this report should be taken with a pinch of salt. To be fair, it wouldn’t be surprising if the Saudi interest is genuine, but this early in the season, it’s wiser to wait until the summer. It’s highly unlikely that Dembele will leave in January.
