- Manchester United are considering Ousmane Dembélé as a possible signing

- It has been reported that Barcelona is willing to deal a financial blow to Dembélé
Manchester United have been told they can sign Barcelona star Ousmane Dembélé for a ‘reduced price of £ 60 million’.
The Red Devils hope to do some business before Monday’s transfer deadline, and are looking for alternatives to Borussia Dortmund winger Jadon Sancho.
United have been paying attention to Dembélé, who signed for the Catalan giants for £ 135 million in 2017.
Barcelona are reportedly set to take a hit on the £ 135m they paid for Ousmane Dembele
Ronald Koeman hopes to raise funds to meet Dutch winger Memphis Depay
Now, the Daily Mirror reports that Barcelona would be willing to sell the 23-year-old and take a hit of £ 75 million over the price they paid for the French World Cup winner.
He adds that neither Dembélé nor Barcelona are interested in agreeing on a loan to join Old Trafford.
Barcelona coach Ronald Koeman is still hopeful of acquiring funds to power Lyon’s Memphis Depay.
Koeman has known Depay well from his time as the Dutch national coach and has made the 26-year-old his main target.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer made Jadon Sancho his number one transfer priority early in the transfer window.
However, it appears United will miss out on England’s star as Dortmund refuse to budge on their £ 108 million valuation of the player after rejecting a £ 91 million offer from the Red Devils.
Manchester United have not equaled Borussia Dortmund’s assessment of goal Jadon Sancho
Manchester United have until Monday to make more recruits after signing Donny van de Beek from Ajax this summer.
They will be tasked with deciding whether to increase their bid for Sancho, 20, or move on to another target like Dembélé.
Dembélé has battled injuries since joining Camp Nou, making just five La Liga appearances during the 2019-20 campaign.
