And now Dembele himself has perhaps given a huge hint that his future lies away from the German outfit.

Twitter users shared photos of his account on the social media platform, before and after some eye-catching tweaks.

And it appears the player, or his team, made similar tweaks to his profile on Instagram, with social media users also sharing snaps of before and after on there too.

Reports in Germany suggest a delegation from the La Liga club have visited Borussia Dortmund today finalising a £100m deal for brilliant youngster Dembele.

And sources in Spain also suggest a fee has been agreed in principle with Liverpool which will see Coutinho leave Anfield in a package worth £108.8m.

All the reports suggest Barca want to get both deals over the line by the end of this week as they make an emphatic statement that they can easily survive without Neymar.

Mundo Deportivo in Spain and SportBild in Germany both claim Barca chief executive Oscar Grau has led a delegation of club officials to Dortmund to finalise terms over the Dembele deal.

And Grau has also been talking with Liverpool officials where ESPN in Spain he has finally agreed a fee suitable to the Reds for Coutinho.

The Dembele transfer could even be announced by Wednesday.

They are then hoping to fly in to Merseyside tomorrow to conclude negotiations with Liverpool for a deal which will make Coutinho the second most expensive player in world football history.

It is understood that the player told Liverpool yesterday he would prefer to make the move to Spain if a deal could be agreed between the two clubs.

That appears to have softened the Merseyside club’s stance from their original position of insisting their star player was not for sale.

Liverpool are now claimed to have reluctantly accepted Barca’s offer, which will see an initial fee of £81.6m being paid for the 25-year-old – although publicly the club are still briefing no deal has been agreed.

There is then a bonus package which has the potential to see the Reds rake in a further £27.2m in extra payments over the duration of his time with Barca.
