Sven Mislintat, Arsenal's chief scout, sat down with Barcelona
Sven Mislintat, head scout at Arsenal, got in touch with Barcelona to find out about the current sporting and contractual deal with Barcelona winger Ousmane Dembele. Contact which the French player has learned of, while with the national team, after his people got wind of it.
Mislintat, in charge of Arsenal's transfers, has had "continuous contract" with Dembele according to L'Equipe, after finding out about the rumours which said Dembele would be loaned out by Barcelona - an option the player discarded when he heard it.
Arsenal, with new coach Unai Emery, want to sign a player with Dembele's quality and characteristics, who would fit into the team's style, according to various British media sources. But for now Dembele is concentrating on the World Cup.
