Barcelona have announced on Thursday that Ousmane Dembele will put pen to paper for a new two-year contract extension at the Camp Nou.

The Frenchman has been a free agent since his last deal expired at the end of June but has now committed his future to the Catalan giants.
Dembele will officially sign at the Ciutat Esportiva shortly and there will then be a “public signing” for the cameras on the Tito Vilanova pitch.
The news finally brings the Dembele saga to an end. It had appeared almost certain the forward would leave earlier in the year after he failed to agree a new deal.
The Blugranes appeared pretty frustrated with the situation, but if reports are to be believed, it seems Xavi has played a key role in keeping Dembele at the club.
