Barca winger Ousmane Dembele is open to leaving Barcelona. The club invited him to leave and he is thinking about doing so before the January transfer window ends. According to 'Marca', the player could end up in the Premier League. He reportedly has offers on the table from Man Utd, Newcastle and Chelsea.

In two days, the transfer window will close. The clubs still have margin to carry out signings at the last minute and to let players go who do not have a place in the squad

Barca had already invited Dembele to leave. After initially refusing to budge, the winger gave in and understood that the best thing for him to do was to leave. The Frenchman has two days to get a new club and he is now looking for the best option. 

The footballer would like to try his luck in the Premier League, according to 'Marca'. Several Premier League clubs had already shown interest in his services. 

Man Utd, Chelsea and Newcastle have the name of Dembele on their list of targets, the newspaper says. The clubs are working on a possibility of a loan deal until the end of the season to then get hold of Dembele. PSG will also keep tabs on Dembele, but he prefers the Premier League. 

Man City, another team which have been linked with Dembele, have reportedly ruled out getting him. Guardiola does not think the team need him now.
