Borussia Dortmund announce signing of Ousmane Dembele from Rennes

Borussia Dortmund have this afternoon confirmed the signing of Ousamane Dembele.
The young striker is the hottest property in European football, after tearing it up with Rennes in Ligue 1 this season.
Referring to the striking gem as ‘Toptalent’, Dortmund couldn’t hid their joy at being able to announce the arrival of the young Frenchman.
This announcement comes surprisingly early, given that just yesterday it was being reported that Liverpool had entered the race to sign Dembele.
No fee has been announced just yet, but recent reports have put Dembele’s valuation at £28m.
Still just 18 years of age and with just 2 U21 France caps under his belt, that price tag shows just how highly rated the teenager is.
12 league goals in 24 league games is a brilliant record for such a young player, and it’s only going to get better with the service he’ll thrive off at Dortmund.
So Klopp’s former club have gotten one over him, for now….
Because this signing could trigger a bit of a striker merry-go-round this summmer…
