Barcelona 'determined to keep hold of Ousmane Dembele'

Barcelona are reportedly 'not giving up' on Ousmane Dembele and will continue to work towards signing the France international to a new contract.

The 23-year-old's existing deal at Camp Nou is due to expire next summer, and it is believed that Manchester United are interested in signing him in the upcoming market.

A recent report claimed that Ronald Koeman's side would be open to selling the World Cup winner if they received an offer of somewhere between €50m (£43.6m) and €60m (£52.3m).

However, according to Sport, the Catalan giants are determined to keep hold of the attacker and are still pushing for him to sign an extension in the coming weeks.

The report claims that Barca are quietly confident of convincing Dembele to commit his future to the club.

The Frenchman has been a regular for the La Liga title challengers during the 2020-21 campaign, making 39 appearances in all competitions, contributing 10 goals and four assists in the process.
