Sky Sports reports that league officials are &#8220;laying the groundwork&#8221; for a move to sign the 28-year-old in the summer, having already made an enquiry for him. Dembele, who holds both the men&#8217;s Ballon d&#8217;Or and FIFA the Best awards, has 2\u00bd years left on his contract at the Parc des Princes, but talks over an extension have stalled as club president Nasser Al Khelaifi made clear that he would not break PSG&#8217;s wage structure. As you would expect, Saudi Pro League clubs are reportedly prepared to offer significant salary amid hopes of tempting him away from the Parc des Princes. It is said that Dembele&#8217;s representatives have indicated that he is focusing on this season, but there could be a possibility of a transfer to Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Manchester City are set to block any potential exit for striker <strong>Omar Marmoush<\/strong> this month, according to Football Insider.

Marmoush scored in the 2-0 Premier League win over Wolves on Saturday, in what was his third league start for Pep Guardiola&#8217;s side this season.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"inline editorial float-r\" data-behavior=\"article_related\">\n<h2 class=\"editorial-title\">Editor&#8217;s Picks<\/h2>\n<p>2 Related<\/p>\n<\/aside>\n<p>&#8211; Liverpool and Real Madrid are interested in Juventus winger<strong> Kenan Yildiz<\/strong>, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.
