Dembele rejects Barcelona's final offer with move to Chelsea nearing
The French winger is set to leave Camp Nou when his deal expires on June 30
Chelsea looks set to be his next destination under former coach Thomas Tuchel
Ousmane Dembele appears to be living his final days as a Barcelona player. According to the journalist Santi Ovalle on the Cadena Ser show 'Qué t'hi jugues,' the French forward has rejected the last offer made by the Catalan club.
Per the same information, Barça will not make a new proposal, so Dembele is set to walk away for free when his contract expires at Camp Nou on June 30.
Diario AS journalist Javiermiguel adds that Barça have been aware for a while that Dembele would not accept their offer and have been planning without him for the last three weeks.
Barça had offered him the chance to renew for just one season with a release clause that would allow him to leave for just €10 million if he so wanted.
However, Dembele's agent appears to be in advanced talks with Chelsea, with the Premier League side set to complete the signing of Dembele this summer.
Barça and, above all coach Xavi Hernandez, have tried to convince him to stay and be a key part of the new project, but they have not been able to do so.
