- "PSG have been interested in me since I was at Borussia Dortmund, but at the time my goal was to join Barcelona. There were contacts in 2019 and then this summer. Nasser Al-Khelaifi immediately showed that the club really needed me. I liked the project.

I planned to stay at Barcelona, and it was the negotiations with PSG that made me change my mind. It wasn't a matter of wanting to leave Barcelona, it was a matter of wanting to join PSG," journalist Loic Tanzi quoted Dembele as saying on social media.
