It's no secret that Thomas Tuchel and Chelsea are very interested in signing Barcelona winger Ousmane Dembele this summer to bolster their attack. But, it appears the interest may not be mutual.
Dembele recently had a conversation with a Barca fan on holiday, who asked him if he will be leaving Spain and joining the Blues. The Frenchman gave a very stern yet straightforward answer.

In his eyes, the Chelsea talks are only rumors. Barcelona was ready to sell him in January after numerous injury problems, but he did start to find his form in the second half of the campaign.
Dembele has yet to agree to a new deal with the Catalans though, so nothing should be ruled out at this point. Chelsea is also keen on Jules Kounde, another France international.
It is important to note however that if Dembele was planning to leave Barcelona, he wouldn't reveal it to just anyone. It's confidential news. It will be very interesting to see what happens with his future this summer but for now, Dembele is just enjoying his holidays and time away from football.
