Dortmund sign Dembele

Borussia Dortmund have won the race to sign highly-rated Rennes forward Ousmane Dembele. The 18-year-old, who earlier this week claimed he turned down Leicester City, has signed a five-year contract with the Bundesliga club. Dembele has scored 12 Ligue 1 goals this season, and was recently named the Young Player of the Year in France. Dembele’s agent last month denied reports his client had agreed a move to Borussia Dortmund, but the German club announced the signing on Thursday afternoon.
