The French winger, 20, swapped Borussia Dortmund for the La Liga giants last week in a sensational £138million deal.On Sunday, Dembele was unofficially unveiled at Barcelona as he posed in a club polo in front of the famous crest.
A day later and the medical was complete, as the France international prepared to sign all the paperwork before his official Nou Camp unveiling.
Dembele is now the world’s second-most expensive footballer ever after Brazilian ace Neymar.
After clinching his five-year deal at Barca, Dembele spoke of his excitement to be at the Spanish club.
He said: “I am very happy to be here. It has always been my dream to be at Barcelona.
“And now I’m here I’m very happy to have achieved my dream.
“This is the best club in the world with the best players in the world…
“My aim is to do everything for the club, everything for the team, and to have an understanding with my team-mates.”
Barca coach Ernesto Valverde added Dembele is the perfect addition,
saying: “He’s a player who guarantees an attacking threat, which is
something we had lost and we badly need.”
