PSG won the Ligue 1 title last week and are now free to concentrate on planning for next season, especially with Karim Benzema having knocked them out of the Champions League.
It could be a busy summer at the Parc des Princes, with rumours that Mauricio Pochettino could leave his position as manager, with Antonio Conte rumoured to be his potential replacement.
On the playing side Kylian Mbappe is still expected to leave the French capital, and move to Real Madrid, with his contract expiring.
PSG could replace Mbappe with fellow Frenchman Dembele, who in turn is out of contract at Barca, and has been linked with a departure for some time.
According to Spanish journalist Toni Juanmarti, the Ligue 1 champions have tabled a bid worth €17 million-a-year, after tax, but have not heard back from the player yet.

The report claims that the player’s future should be resolved within the next three weeks, and it’s not out of the question that he could stay.
That seems mad considering the club tried to get him to sign a new contract back in January and, when he refused they put out a statement saying he would be sold before the end of the winter window,
Whilst the Spanish giants aren’t able to offer as much as PSG, the report says that he would be interested in signing for less, as long as Xavi’s team still offer a decent deal.

It would be a massive turnaround from just a few months ago when the Nou Camp crowd booed the former Borussia Dortmund forward, whilst he was an unused substitute.
Xavi did plead with the supporters to stop, and called on them to support the players, and despite his injuries he has featured 17 times in the league during the campaign.
As well as a move for Dembele, PSG have also been linked with another French star who is out of contract, in the shape of Paul Pogba.
The Manchester United midfielder is no stranger to being booed by his own fans either, after the Old Trafford faithful recently jeered him off in the win over Norwich City.
He is expected to miss the rest of the season with injury, ending his second spell at the club in a very disappointing fashion.
PSG Make ‘Part-Exchange Offer’ For Ousmane Dembele As Barcelona Name The Player They Want From Ligue 1 Giants
Paris Saint-Germain are reportedly prepared to offer Juan Bernat as a makeweight in a deal for out-of-favour winger Ousmane Dembele — but Barcelona are demanding a different player.
Barcelona are keen to offload Dembele in the January transfer window ahead of his contract expiring at the end of the season.
The Spanish club have valued the 24-year-old Frenchman at £18m, with Barcelona manager Xavi prepared to axe Dembele from his plans.
Dembele, who is earning £210,000-a-week wages at Barcelona, has been informed by sporting director Mateu Alemany that the La Liga side want to sell him.
According to Football Espana, PSG are ready to make a ‘part exchange offer’ on deadline day that would see Bernat head to the Camp Nou.
The Ligue 1 club have emerged as the frontrunners to sign Dembele ahead of Manchester United and Chelsea.

However, it is believed that PSG want to use Bernat as a way to bring down Barcelona’s hefty valuation for the France winger.
Bernat is not PSG’s first-choice left-back under Mauricio Pochettino and Xavi could be interested in signing the player to add much-needed cover for Jordi Alba.
Diario AS reports that PSG striker Mauro Icardi has also been considered as a potential makeweight for the Dembele deal.
Barcelona have no interest in Icardi and have ‘requested’ for PSG star Angel Di Maria to be included in their offer for Dembele.
Di Maria, who spent four seasons at Barcelona’s arch-rivals Real Madrid, has been at PSG since 2015 after his flop spell at Manchester United.
The 33-year-old Argentine winger is out of contract in the summer, but PSG have the option to renew his current deal by another year.
Dembele’s arrival at the Parc des Princes would see Di Maria fall down the PSG pecking order, according to reports.
Barcelona face a tough test in convincing Di Maria to arrive at the Camp Nou, considering his history with Madrid and ambitions to win the Champions League.
