The France international, who committed his future by signing a five-year contract at the Camp Nou, becomes the club’s most expensive player ever.
Dembele told the official Barca website: “I’m very happy to be here.
“It has always been my dream to be at Barcelona and now I’m here I’m very happy to have achieved my dream. It is the best club in the world with the best players in the world.”
The 20-year-old arrives to the Catalans as a replacement for Neymar, who joined the Paris Saint-Germain in a world-record £198m deal.
Dembele’s last appearance for the Bundesliga giants came in the German Super Cup on 5th August.
