Barcelona are reportedly looking to intensify their efforts to sign Borussia Dortmund playmaker Ousmane Dembele by launching an improved bid for the Frenchman.
Recent reports have suggested that Dortmund have already turned down an initial Barca offer for the 20-year-old, who is viewed as a potential replacement for Paris Saint-Germain signing Neymar.
Dembele found himself fined and suspended by Dortmund earlier this week when the youngster failed to show for training, in what is being described by some as a move to help force through a transfer to the Catalan giants.
According to Sport, Barcelona could be prepared to spend as much as £110m on Dembele, who is thought to be strongly committed to finding a way of linking up with the La Liga club this summer.
Dembele enjoyed a standout season for BVB last campaign, having scored six times in 32 appearances, following a move from French side Rennes in the summer of 2016.
