Barcelona forward Ousmane Dembele is reportedly key to his side's current negotiations with Paris Saint-Germain over Neymar.
The French champions are believed to want at least one player in any deal for the Brazilian forward, whose desire to leave the Parc des Princes has been one of the summer's biggest transfer stories.
According to the Daily Mirror, the 22-year-old Dembele is the player that Thomas Tuchel's side are most interested in bringing to the French capital before the European transfer window closes on September 2.
The former Rennes winger has struggled to really assert himself since moving to Barcelona from Borussia Dortmund in 2017 for £135m, suffering a number of injuries and scoring 18 goals in 66 games across all competitions.
A delegation from the Spanish club, including director Javier Bordas, Eric Abidal and Oscar Grau, travelled to Paris on Tuesday to discuss a potential deal which would see Barcelona pay £163m in installments and offer Dembele in exchange for their former forward Neymar.
