Arsenal and Liverpool are two of the sides who are said to be interested in signing Ousmane Dembele.
Barcelona recently set a price on the French sensation after the management came to a conclusion that they would now like to cash in on the player.
And since then, it was Liverpool who were said to be the frontrunners to sign Ousmane Dembele but now it seems that Arsenal manager Unai Emery might possess the magic wand.
According to reports, the Arsenal boss is planning to use Pierre Emerick Aubameyang as a persuasion tool.
Unai Emery reportedly wants Ousmane Dembele’s good friend Aubameyang to talk with the Frenchman and convince him to sign for Arsenal sometime next year.

Liverpool though still lead the race to sign the Frenchman but if Arsenal can use the Aubameyang factor then surely Unai Emery’s team will benefit a lot.
At the start of the season, Ernesto Valverde claimed that Ousmane Dembele would feature prominently this campaign but four months have passed since and the Frenchman is still living on those odd outings with the first team.
Ousmane Dembele has played seven games for Barcelona this season in the La Liga but out of those four have been in the form of substitute appearances.
Barcelona are ready to listen to offers from interested clubs but by the looks of it, the Catalans are not going to part ways with the youngster during the January transfer window.
