Paris Saint-Germain have completed the €50.4million signing of forward Ousmane Dembélé from Barcelona.

The France international put pen-to-paper on a five-year deal with the reigning Ligue 1 Uber Eats champions.

"I'm delighted to be joining Paris Saint-Germain and can't wait to play for my new club," Dembélé told PSG's official website. "I hope I can continue to grow here and make all the club's fans proud.”

PSG president Nasser Al-Khelaifi hailed his latest acquisition saying Dembélé will be an "important and committed" player for the club.

He added: “We are delighted to welcome Ousmane Dembélé to Paris Saint-Germain where he will be an important and committed player for our club. 

"The passion and determination shown by Ousmane as he has signed for PSG is fantastic and perfectly corresponds to the attitude required of all of our players. 

"We are proud to be able to bring another French World Cup winner to Paris Saint-Germain as we enter a new great era for our Club."

The 26-year-old began his career with Rennes in 2015 and after showing promise, moved to Bundesliga giants Borussia Dortmund two-years later.

Dembélé's stock rose further prompting Barcelona to splash a whopping €135m on the Frenchman in 2017.

The 2018 World Cup winner scored 40 goals in 185 games during his time at the Nou Camp, collecting three La Liga titles in the process.

Dembélè has earned 37 caps for France at senior level, netting four times.

He becomes PSG's ninth signing of the summer and could be in line to make his debut in Saturday's trip to Toulouse.
