Chelsea have been handed a boost in their chances to sign Ousmane Dembele this summer as PSG have reportedly turned down the opportunity. It comes as the Frenchman is set to become a free agent in the summer.
The 25-year-old was previously linked with a move to Stamford Bridge in January, with reports claiming that there had been talks over a transfer with his deal running down. That never materialised, however Thomas Tuchel may have been handed a chance to sign him in the upcoming window.
The German coach is set for a huge summer ahead of him, admitting that his side needs a rebuild rather than strengthening. “We are rebuilding, not improving the squad. We are rebuilding. This is always challenging, but we are up for the challenge.”
