The arrival of Ousmane Dembélé at PSG is imminent. All that is missing is the final agreement of the world champion.
@Tanziloic
Notice the irony in his wording:
The arrival imminent, but the 'only' thing missing is player wanting to go.
which is the most important thing for any transfer to occur
First off, nobody has reported on the thoughts and intentions of Dembele himself because nobody knows what his thoughts are, besides his agent and probably his close family members. The journalists can only report on what they know from the club and their reactions, which seems to be quite unsettling by his possible departure. This is not out of nothing, say totally fabricated by PSG outlets or journalists, if it was it wouldn't have gone this far.
The very fact that it took that long last summer to finally renew him and the mere existence of that idiotic release clause said it all, that Dembele took the time to get what he wanted from the club and he clearly left a way out. If he was that committed to the club, I don't think it would have taken that long to renew, nor would he have asked for such a clause. I don't know why he didn't go to PSG or Chelsea (did Chelsea even want him back then?), again the fact of the matter is it took a long time for him to finally agree to renew and that says something about him. You can blame it all on his agent, sure he wields a big influence on Dembele but at the end of the day it is Dembele who says "yay" or "nay" to whatever his agent does.
This time around it could be his agent upping the ante to put pressure on the club for a better deal, however I don't think so, I think PSG genuinely wants him, now more than ever, after all they are losing Mbappe soon and they need more outlets for their attack game.
As to the claim that the club wants to sell him, of course nobody can categorically claim XXX is not for sale for any price, not even the likes of Pedri, Araujo etc. But Dembele's name has never been mentioned in any of the transfer rumors (like Frenkie's has been) and more importantly from the sporting perspective it makes no sense for the club to sell him when he is clearly relied upon, considering the length the club went through last summer to renew him.
Tbf he is a good muslim now.Tbf he snaked Dortmund in a worse way so him snaking us shouldn't come as a surprise.
PSG genuinely want him, no one denies that.
The question is if Dembele wants them.
Dembele didn't get anything last summer. He eventually signed an offer with a paycut and a much worse offer than the offer on the table on December 2021, which Moussa rejected as he deemed it 'too low'.
Barca won last summer, with the clause being the only black spot.
The renewal of course was not long-term solution, and everyone know we will come back again at the same spot, and negotiations will start over again
The financial side of thins is taken care my Moussa. Maybe Moussa has convinced him that he is worth 20m net per season. The sporting side THO is NOT. And Dembele never wanted to leave. Tuchel wanted him, especially after they didn't get Raphina, but the player rejected the move.

YesIsn't Cancelo a whiney @(#*?
He actually wanted to stay last season and that's why he didn't leave for Chelsea or PSG even as a free agent, plus signing at a lesser salary and without a signing bonus.PSG genuinely want him, no one denies that.
