Arsenal are on alert after learning Ousmane Dembele is unhappy at Paris Saint-Germain, as per reports, while Real Madrid are trying to stop THREE players from joining Mikel Arteta\u2019s side.<\/p>\n
Dembele won the Ballon d\u2019Or in September after a sensational 2024-25 campaign in which he notched 35 goals and 16 assists in 53 appearances. Luis Enrique moved Dembele from out wide to centre-forward, and that decision proved to be a masterstroke.<\/p>\n
The attacker fired PSG to an extraordinary quadruple, as they won all three domestic trophies and also ligted the Champions League for the first time in their history.<\/p>\n
Injury issues have returned to haunt Dembele this season, though he has still managed four goals and four assists in 14 matches.<\/p>\n
PSG view the 28-year-old as a key part of their project, which is now focused on the best French talent, though an exit has suddenly been talked up\u2026<\/p>\n
Arsenal linked with remarkable Ousmane Dembele swoop<\/p>\n
According to Football Transfers<\/a> and French source Canal+, there is growing \u2018unease\u2019 at PSG, with Dembele \u2018unsettled\u2019 at the club.<\/p>\n The player is said to be frustrated with how he is being used by Enrique. Even when Dembele has been declared fit, he has not been a guaranteed starter \u2013 despite his incredible exploits last season.<\/p>\n Dembele feels he is ready to start matches on a weekly basis once again, whereas Enrique is being far more cautious and is drip-feeding him game time.<\/p>\n Football Transfers\u00a0claim Arsenal<\/a> could cause serious problems for PSG by acting on their long-standing interest in the former Barcelona man.<\/p>\n The Gunners have been named as a \u2018perfect fit\u2019 for Dembele<\/a>, should he push for a shock exit in 2026.<\/p>\n Arteta is on the hunt for a versatile new forward who can thrive as a left winger or centrally, and Dembele is seen as an \u2018excellent\u2019 solution.<\/p>\n Although, with the France star\u2019s contract running until June 2028, PSG are in a \u2018strong negotiating position\u2019 and will be able to demand a massive fee before selling.<\/p>\n Want more breaking transfer lines from original sources?
