The trajectory of Ousmane Dembélé in the Barcelona seems to be nearing the end. After statements by coach Xavi, it was the turn of the football director, Mateu Alemany, to speak out. The director informed that the club made several offers of renewal to the athlete, who has a current contract until the end of this season. However, all were refused by their agents.
Therefore, Alemany communicated that the athlete will no longer play for cules.
“Today, 20 January, eleven days before the end of the last term of his contract, it seems obvious that the player does not want to continue at Barcelona and is not committed to our project for the future. In this scenario, it will be communicated to him and his managers to leave immediately, because we want players committed to the project and therefore we expect a transfer to take place before January 30th.” Barcelona TV.
Dembele was signed in August 2017 for €105 million from Borussia Dortmund. The player arrived to replace Neymar, who at the time transferred to PSG. In 2019, even Josep Maria Bartomeu, then president of the Spanish club, even claimed that the French was better than the Brazilian.
However, this was not seen on the field. At Barcelona, Dembele was involved in several controversies and suffered from many injuries. In addition, it adds numerous irregular performances.
Even if Barça does not receive offers until the end of this transfer window, the French winger can already sign a pre-contract with another team, which he would join at the beginning of the 2022/23 season.
