Dembélé is looking for a new contract in line with his new status as one of the best players in the world after lifting the Ballon d’Or last year. The Frenchman is reportedly not in a rush to sign a new deal, and is open to a move if an offer is made.
Could Dembele make the move?
Players such as Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, Ruben Neves, Neymar and Sadio Mane have all made the switch to the Saudi League and found success. Dembele could be the next player on the list as suggested by Sky Sports journalist Kaveh Solhekol.
"If this happens, it would be the biggest deal for Saudi Arabia since they signed Cristiano Ronaldo. The Saudi Pro League clubs are anticipating a big summer transfer window and one of the players they are looking to sign is Ousmane Dembele.
"Could it happen? I think it's a long shot - but the landscape of football in Saudi Arabia is changing. For a long time, the clubs were effectively bankrolled and controlled by the state.
"Then we had the situation where some of the biggest clubs were owned by the Sovereign Wealth Fund. Now we're in the situation where clubs are opening up and attracting private investment.
"So it's not just the case of Saudi state money being invested in these clubs and big-name transfers, it's also private investors who will be using their own money to try and sign players. They may well try and sign him, but whether he would want to go to Saudi Arabia when he's at the peak of his powers remain to be seen."
After leading PSG to a historic six trophies in 2025, scoring 35 goals and providing 14 assists last season, Dembele is widely regarded as one of the best players on the planet.
He could raise the reputation of the league alongside Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah, who is also linked with a move in the twilight of his career as the pair lead the way for the next group of stars to make the move.
