Barcelona centre-back Samuel Umtiti has revealed that the club are interested in signing Borussia Dortmund winger Ousmane Dembele.

According to reports in Spain, Barca have reignited their interest in the 20-year-old after being made aware that the France international would be keen on making the move to Camp Nou this summer.

Dembele was signed by Dortmund from Rennes last year and has made an immediate impact under Thomas Tuchel in his first season with 10 goals and 18 assists in 47 appearances.

But with Tuchel gone, Dembele is understood to be looking to leave Dortmund, and his France team-mate Umtiti has urged Barca to get the deal done.

‘Ousmane and I make a lot of fun out of each other, and I know the club is interested in his profile,’ Umtiti told L’Equipe.

‘Of course, all the parties need to come to an agreement, but Ousmane would do us the world of good with his qualities.

‘If he comes, I’ll welcome him with open arms. If he wants, I’ll take him in, he’ll sleep at my place and I’ll take care of him!’
