Because of financial fair play regulations, it often takes one big transfer to trigger another. According to reports, Barcelona want Manchester City to sign with french international Ousmane Dembele to help their own quest to bring Neymar back to catalonia.
A story in Don Balon has reported that barcelone have been trying to convince manchester City that ousmane could be the perfect replacement for Leroy Sane, if they allowed him to move on.
It’s not clear how much the barca side would want for the dembele, according The BBC reported they agreed a fee of up to £135.5m when he signed from Borussia Dortmund.

Last days The Mirror reported Barcelona had set an asking price of £94m for the winger, so they could be prepared to take a loss if it meant they could bring Neymar back.
If Barca were to bring Neymar back, it would also cause a problem for another one of their star players. Unless one was to play out of position, then either Luis Suarez or Antoine Griezmann would find themselves on the bench to accommodate the neymar.

"FC Bayern hasn‘t offered Alaba to Man City or to Barca. Bayern has enough money to buy Leroy Sané or Ousmane Dembélé. Bayern's squad is small for an exchange (so they won't exchange anyone with anyone). pic.twitter.com/djsMUxpQV8
