DEMBELE JOINS BARCA FOR £129M

BARCELONA have spent a chunk of the world-record £198million fee they received from Paris Saint-Germain for Neymar to make Ousmane Dembele the second most expensive player in history. The Borussia Dortmund forward will cost Barca an initial £97m plus add-ons believed to total a further £32m. Just two years ago he was in France’s fifth tier for Stade Rennes reserves.
