Ousmane Dembele 'closes in' on Chelsea transfer to become first Todd Boehly signing

Ousmane Dembele is reportedly 'close' to agreeing a move to Chelsea which would be the first signing of the Todd Boehly era.

The winger's contract at Barcelona will expire in the coming weeks with the Frenchman set to leave as a free agent. Paris Saint-Germain were strongly linked with a move in January, but the Blues are also interested in bringing him to the Premier League.

Thomas Tuchel could reunite with the former Borussia Dortmund man now that the club's ownership saga is finally settled as Boehly is set to take the reins at Stamford Bridge on Monday. And Dembele is reportedly on the verge of reaching an agreement with Chelsea, according to Mundo Deportivo.
