Shaun Wright-Phillips believes Ousmane Dembele can become a "massive player" for Chelsea should the club bring the Frenchman to Stamford Bridge this summer. The 25-year-old winger sees his Barcelona contract expire at the end of the month and the Blues are confident they can strike a deal.
football.london understands there have been talks between Chelsea and the winger's entourage recently and there are positive signs that a deal can be agreed. Dembele worked with Thomas Tuchel during their days at Borussia Dortmund, where the France international established himself on the European scene.
Dembele then completed a move to Barcelona for over £100million, but ever since joining the La Liga outfit, he has struggled with consistent injury problems. That's the main concern supporters have with signing the Frenchman: whether or not he can keep himself on the pitch.
