Ousmane Dembele is set to extend his Paris Saint-Germain contract until 2030.
L’Equipe claims that the 2025 Ballon d’Or winner is expected to add another two years to his existing deal, which was due to expire in 2028.
The extension has not yet been formally signed or announced by PSG, but the remaining formalities are expected to be completed in the coming weeks.
Dembele had made it clear before this summer’s World Cup that he wanted to remain in Paris and continue building his legacy with the club before eventually considering a move.
The 29-year-old attracted approaches from elsewhere, including interest from Saudi Pro League clubs, but has ultimately chosen to extend his stay at the Parc des Princes.
Dembele publicly removed much of the uncertainty surrounding his immediate future in May when he said it was certain that he would stay with PSG for the 2026/27 campaign.
The agreement also represents another major commitment between PSG and the player who has become the defining individual figure of the team.
Dembele joined PSG from Barcelona in 2023 and subsequently developed from an unpredictable winger into a devastating central attacker under manager Luis Enrique.
That transformation peaked during the 2024/25 campaign, when he inspired PSG to their first Champions League title and finished the season with 37 goals and 15 assists before winning the Ballon d’Or.
He followed that historic campaign by helping PSG retain the Champions League last season, scoring the equalising penalty against Arsenal before they won the final on penalties.
PSG have also maintained their domestic dominance, leaving Dembele with the opportunity to add further major honours during the additional years covered by his new agreement.
His immediate focus is now returning to full rhythm after being given additional rest following a demanding summer.
PSG confirmed last week that the decision was agreed between Dembele, Enrique and the sporting hierarchy.
Dembele’s impending extension provides further stability for a PSG squad attempting to sustain an unprecedented period of success.
Saudi Arabia or another destination outside Europe may eventually become an option for the French international, but that decision has been pushed further into the future.
