Ousmane Dembele transfer: Saudi Pro League lining up ambitious move for PSG star and Ballon d'Or winner

The Saudi Pro League is laying the groundwork for an ambitious summer move for Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembele.

A significant package is being prepared to try and lure the France international to Saudi after this summer's World Cup, in what is expected to be a busy summer of player trading in the Middle East.

Saudi Arabia's first cycle of investment in some of the world's top players is coming to an end this year, with a number of current international stars seeing their contracts expire, and so the country is now working on the next wave of top talent to enter the league.

But after that, Dembele's future and the possibility of a seismic transfer to Saudi Arabia - in the prime of his career - could then be firmly on the agenda.
