Arsenal set to face Ousmane Dembele competition from Manchester United

Arsenal will face competition from Manchester United if they are to secure the transfer of Ousmane Dembele before the transfer window shuts on Thursday.

The winger has been heavily linked with a move away from Barcelona after just one season in Catalunya following a much-hyped transfer from Borussia Dortmund.

According to the Mirror, Manchester United are the latest team to enter the race for Dembele – alongside the Gunners.

Struggling with injury in his debut season in Spain, the Frenchman being limited to just 12 starts in La Liga.

Despite the tricky campaign, Dembele still found himself included in Didier Deschamps’ World Cup squad, making two starts and appearing in two more games as a substitute as France hoisted the famous trophy in Russia.

Rumoured to be heading out of the door at the Camp Nou on a loan deal, the Mirror also claim that new Arsenal boss Unai Emery is prepared to pay a £10 million loan fee to secure the signing of Dembele.
