Barcelona have received a boost in their bid to tie Ousmane Dembélé down to a new contract.
The Blaugrana have made multiple attempts to keep Dembélé around ahead of his current deal expiring at the end of this season.
The 24-year-old feels he is due more money than what is being offered, with Barca looking to save money to make some big signings this summer.
Dembélé’s demands led to talks breaking down completely for a number of weeks, but there is now fresh hope amid the winger’s excellent form under Xavi Hernandez.
Reports emerged earlier today claiming that Barcelona had made fresh contact in a bid to agree a new deal.
And a fresh claim from Alex Truica suggests a meeting has now been penned in for the coming days with Dembélé’s agent, Moussa Sissoko.
It seems there is fresh hope of the two parties closing a deal just months before Dembélé’s current deal runs out.
