PSG Make 'Part-Exchange Offer' For Ousmane Dembele As Barcelona Name The Player They Want From Ligue 1 Giants

Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly prepared to offer Juan Bernat as a makeweight in a deal for out-of-favour winger Ousmane Dembele -- but Barcelona are demanding a different player.

Barcelona are keen to offload Dembele in the January transfer window ahead of his contract expiring at the end of the season.

The Spanish club have valued the 24-year-old Frenchman at £18m, with Barcelona manager Xavi prepared to axe Dembele from his plans.

Dembele, who is earning £210,000-a-week wages at Barcelona, has been informed by sporting director Mateu Alemany that the La Liga side want to sell him.

According to Football Espana, PSG are ready to make a ‘part exchange offer’ on deadline day that would see Bernat head to the Camp Nou.

The Ligue 1 club have emerged as the frontrunners to sign Dembele ahead of Manchester United and Chelsea.

Bernat is not PSG’s first-choice left-back under Mauricio Pochettino and Xavi could be interested in signing the player to add much-needed cover for Jordi Alba.

Diario AS reports that PSG striker Mauro Icardi has also been considered as a potential makeweight for the Dembele deal.
