Liverpool make contact over a deal to sign Lyon’s Dembele

Moussa Dembele is attracting interest from the Premier League’s top sides with Liverpool and Arsenal among the latest to make contact over a potential deal.

The Frenchman only recently signed for Lyon at the start of last season in a reasonably priced £20 million deal and he soon became a popular figure, scoring 15 goals in 33 league appearances in France.

According to reports from L’Equipe, as cited on the Mirror, Dembele has considered a move to the Premier League but remains happy at his current club.

I’m happy to stay with Lyon next season, but we’ll see.

Manchester United, who are also admirers, will look to add firepower to their attack ahead of the possible departure of main man Romelu Lukaku this summer.

Liverpool’s Daniel Sturridge has departed and Divock Origi is still facing an uncertain future at the club, despite his Champions League heroics.

Dembele is familiar with England having played in the Championship for Fulham. The 22-year-old certainly has a bright future ahead of him.
