Ousmane Dembele reportedly went close to leaving FC Barcelona for Manchester United in the recent transfer window, but it seems he might now have already committed to another club.
The 23-year-old Frenchman was almost forced out of the Catalan giants on deadline day, although Barcelona were only willing to accept a transfer fee from United, and not a loan offer.
The Red Devils, however, had no interest in meeting the LaLiga club's reported price tag of €50 million (R579 million), and thus passed up the opportunity to sign the winger, while it was also suggested that Dembele was not particularly keen on swapping Barcelona for United.

While, at first, it appeared that the former Borussia Dortmund forward was desperate to fight for a place at the Blaugrana, Sport has now cited a report from Catalunya Radio suggesting that Dembele might already have an agreement in place to join Juventus.
It is claimed the France star has been in contact with the Bianconeri for a while, and could be looking to leave Barca for the Italian giants when he does eventually leave.

Dembele's contract with the Spanish club in June 2022, so he could be open to leaving the Camp Nou in January or at the end of the season, or once his deal runs out in two years' time.
