Ousmane Dembele has reportedly agreed to leave FC Barcelona for Manchester United for a fee of around €60 million.

Reports in Spain claim the Frenchman is close to swapping the Catalan giants for the Red Devils, after he was convinced to join the English giants following several discussions with the club. 

According to AS, the 23-year-old could join the Premier League side for a fee of around €60 million (R1.1 billion).

Selling the 2018 FIFA World Cup winner would also allow Barcelona to move for Lyon forward Memphis Depay, who has reportedly been at the top of Koeman's transfer shortlist since he was appointed. 

Despite his talent, Dembele has endured an injury-stricken three years at the Blaugrana, having missed 80 matches through injury since 2017. 

These rumours follow claims that Borussia Dortmund rejected United's latest approach for Jadon Sancho.
