before the end of the year, according to Spanish outlet SPORT.
Dembele has enter the final year of his Barcelona contract and has so far shown no intentions of penning a contract extension.
Apart from the aforementioned source, Barcelona will propose a raise of €1 million in wages to the winger's agent. This increment would see Dembele pocket around €11 million wages per annum. Out of this, €7.5 million will be fixed whilst the remaining will be in various bonuses.
Barcelona are hoping to find a solution to Ousmane Dembele's contract situation by the end of the week, regardless of the outcome. It is worth noting that the Catalan giants are keen to hold on to their star winger. Barcelona want Dembele to become one of the leaders in Xavi's new team.
However, if Dembele rejects the offer, Barcelona will be looking to offload the 24-year-old winger in the January transfer window. Upon rejecting the offer, the Frenchman will be free to sign a pre-contract with any European giant. This will allow him to move clubs on a free transfer come next summer.
According to reports, various European giants have shown interest in signing Ousmane Dembele on a free transfer. These include the likes of Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Chelsea and Juventus
