Ousmane Dembele, a Barcelona winger, has disclosed the club for which he will play next season, in response to reports that he wants to leave the Nou Camp for Chelsea this summer.
Dembele’s current Barcelona contract is set to expire this summer.
The 25-year-old, who is yet to sign a new deal with Barcelona, has had a disappointing season with the Catalan club, scoring only two goals in 32 appearances.
According to reports in Spain, the World Cup winner from France is willing to leave Barcelona and join his old manager, Thomas Tuchel, at Chelsea, who have expressed interest in a summer transfer.
Dembele, on the other hand, appears to have dashed Chelsea’s hopes of signing him this summer by informing a fan that he is ‘fine’ at Barcelona and will be staying for next season.
A fan spoke with Dembele as they sat in their automobiles at a traffic light as seen in a viral video on social media.
“Are you staying in Barcelona?” the fan asks, with Dembele responding, “Yes.”
Meanwhile, according to Spanish outlet Sport, the fan then inquires about Chelsea and whether Dembele wants to work with Tuchel at the west London club, to which he responded, “I’m fine at Barcelona.”
