Ousmane Dembele drops huge hint on future as Liverpool attempt Chelsea transfer hijack

Ousmane Dembele delayed making a decision on his future so that Chelsea could complete their takeover.

Todd Boehly's consortium completed a £4.25billion deal to buy the Blues on Monday, which means he is now expected to push for A-list signings to mark a new era at Stamford Bridge, according to the Daily Mail. It's also claimed by The Telegraph that Thomas Tuchel is set to have £200m at his disposal to strengthen his side this summer, factoring in player sales.

One player who has been targeted is Barcelona star Dembele, who is set to leave the Nou Camp as a free agent. The Frenchman is reportedly on the verge of reaching an agreement with Chelsea, according to Mundo Deportivo and Tuchel's men are quietly confident of striking a deal to take him to Stamford Bridge.
