The club will pay 105 million euros ($124 million) plus possible add-ons that could reach 40 percent of the fixed transfer fee.
Dembele's contract will have a buyout clause of 400 million euros ($472 million).
Barcelona is bringing in Dembele to try to boost its attack following the departure of Neymar, who moved to Paris Saint-Germain in a world record transfer worth more than 220 million euros (about $260 million) just before the start of the season.
