While Dembele is content in his present position at Barcelona, his agent has claimed that a transfer abroad may result in him earning twice as much as he does at Camp Nou, as well as the opportunity to win championships.
Barcelona is aiming to counter this by providing Dembele a lesser salary with numerous incentives, which could make him one of the club’s top earners if he and the squad perform well.
The guy that was signed from Borussia Dortmund would most likely have a two-year deal.
