According to Tasnim news agency, Barcelona officially announced the extension of Ousmane Dembele’s two-year contract today (Thursday). In this way, the French winger committed himself to the Blues until the end of June 2024. Dembele, whose previous contract with Barcelona expired at the end of the last month (June), was interested in clubs including Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain, but finally decided to continue his football under Xavi Hernandez, who believes in him a lot.
25-year-old Dembele, who was rumored to be leaving Barcelona in the recent winter transfer window, had a great performance under Xavi in Barcelona in the second half of the last season and won the title of La Liga’s best passer in the last season with 13 assists.
The Frenchman joined Barcelona from Borussia Dortmund in 2017 for €105 million plus €40 million in buy-outs, but his time at the club has been marred by a succession of injuries.
